Not always! It depends on how well your wagon has served you. :D

All diesels were W115s.

I won't be in the market for a new car any time soon, but I'm happy that this kind of car is finally entering the modern US car market.

I believe the ones that I posted were 20 inchers. :)

I agree with MTUpower. W123s look bad with 18" rims or larger.

That would really be a shame. Don't do it. Heck, I'm not a fan of second gen W126 rims on W123s to begin with. If you must have black rims, go for some aftermarket rims. They'll look a lot better IMO.
