Can anyone tell me the length of a W123 estate/wagon - I'm trying to figure out if it will fit in the garage!
Steve

I don't know what 'estate' means but the 123 wagons are actually shorter than the 123 sedans. I have both and double park (deep wise) in my garage. The TD wagon fits better than the sedan.

both the sedan and estate (wagon) are 4,725mm / 186 in.

yea they are the same length because they were built on the same chassis.

unless!! of course, one is euro and one is not. euro bumpers are significantly smaller, and thus the car would be shorter.

Thanks for the info.

sdelasal, where are you from? Not too many people call wagons "estates", unless you are from England. In Germany they are called "touring" models, hence the TD (touring diesel)
