Ive got a White one in great shape, far from mint, but rust free!

Vstech, yours may be Mint, but it is a bit smokey...how well has that come out?

I saw some "official" numbers of US import of 124 diesel wagons. It was something like 2,200 or 2,600.

I remember reading 1500 '87 wagons for the USA. Not sure how many OM603 sedans.

Mine was white over palomino leather. I sold it to a PP member in 2004 with ~145K. He offered it perhaps a year ago - I was seriously tempted to buy it back. My favorite practical car I've owned. (Can't really compare it to an AMG - one is transportation, one is a toy.)

Member Palangi claims that there were only 1850 W124 300TDs imported to the US. About 4 years ago, we had a GTG here at my farm and 1/925th of the production was represented.

I've got a gold or smoke silver one. I don't even know the color name. Its the same as VZtechs though. Mine is Red intererior. Far from mint but works great. I need a red door panel for right rear door if anyone has one #14 head with only 133,000 or so according to odometer. Indiana car. I should be set for the next 50 years.

I have one and it's not white, It is light Ivory or whatever MB calls the light yellow color.

I just had a vision of converting a gasser W124 wagon to a diesel by way of a 606 turbo engine and a 5-speed manual. A W124 gasser wagon should be easier to find than a diesel model. I'll have sweet dreams now.

That is just sad and wrong! Why sell the wheels? It really made the car come together and stand out......and where did the back bumper go?
