was also looking for W124TDT for quite a few years. Looked in Europe as well and at units coming from Japan. From Europe MB quite often poorly equipped, driven on salty roads and pushed hard on the autobahns. Also salt on the roads in Northern Japan and most of the time mileage claims cannot be backed up.
In the end I bought in the Carolinas a 91 W124.128 and I think it falls into the 1% category. I know the dubious value of Carfax but against this car there were only 3 entries. BTW a little while ago there was on VCR craigslist a W124
TDT ex Jpn for $8,900.00. Also live in Mistysoggy. Cheers

Learnet it long time ago, spend a bit up front but have something you can keep for a long time. There is no such thing as "cheap" Mercedes.. unless you have a horseshoe up your you know what.
Took me 5 years to find the wagon we have now.. and I LOVE it. So much in fact I want a sedan for myself (wify drives the wagon).
Did a bit of search in Europe, but looks like with the stron Euro it's actually cheaper to find them on this side and in better condition.
Thanks!
