We are looking for a 85 300TD wagon with the 3rd seat. Clean, rust free, well maintained, must have ac, and as low milage as we can find. Of course I imagine a lot of folks would like to find one llike that.

Thanks, I have got those on my watch list, may take a shot at the red one. Ebay seems to be a different sort of market, looks like things go pretty high there. What should this one be worth?

Seems lately alot of older MB's are high on there. Check around for large auctions in your area. Sometimes there are good deals to be had.

Gerry Goodman (MBCA official in Ft. Worth, TX) has been advertising a 123 diesel wagon in the newspaper. It has not appearred on his website yet. Seems like the website is not updated frequently enough to keep up with inventory. http://europeanmotorcars-ltd.com/

I know nothing about the car. Suggest you contact him for details. He sells top notch used MB's, but priced accordingly.

Thanks Palangi,

Well I did it. If it was the blue one that just went up on the website, I just bought it. Probably paid too much, $8,995 but he assured me it has only 143,000 original miles, and everything is in excellent condidtion and NO rust. Going ride the grey dog to Dallas and drive it home. Wish me luck!!

Kool beans!!

I looked at a white 123 wagon there about 5 years ago. Had about 100K at the time. Perfect body, perfect interior, freshly rebuilt seats, georgeous car. Asking $5500. Seemed like too much money at the time, so I let it go. Someone else bought it, and I understand they wrecked it shortly thereafter. I have been kicking myself ever since for not buying that car. Glad you got this one. That should be a great car.
