IIRC the sedans far out-number the estates/wagons. I too read something like 1500, probably here, thought that the number was for 603 turbo wagons world-wide (many markets got the 603na), ... would love to know the real number.
My feeling is the same. I've had piles of Mercedes sedans, only had one wagon (a gas 4matic). I've had many cars that are faster, better looking, more nimble, haul more, etc., etc. so the sedan nor cab really no longer appeal to me as a classic nor a daily (coupe is still pretty special IMO). Two things have really appealed to me in the 124 and they are the 603 turbo's gasser-like performance and practicality while being a diesel, and the unique look of the wagon while also being surprisingly versitile. So, ... a 603 turbo 124T is the culmination of all that I've found dear in the 124, ... Some day I might get motivated enough to build a 606 turbo 124 coupe, but that's another direction entirely.
