If he wants something that he can beat up the way a pickup is usually mauled, go for either a W123 or W124 wagon.
As a long time suburban driver as well as purely home brew mercedes mechanic, I love the suburban for its rock solid dependability and cavernous room to hold almost anything in it or on it. But the W124 wagon I picked up a few months back can do it with grace, poise and style.

Is the W126 roomier than the W124, or is it just a luxury model? I saw
this car on ebay, it's a 1990 300D. If it's half as reliable as my car has been, I'd be pleased.
