W124 still in production? Maybe
Found this while searching. I do know that Ssangyong used the M104 and other MB bits. Apparently they use at least the floor pan / running gear of a W124.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ M104 3.6 still being manufactured? - MBClub UK - Bringing together Mercedes Enthusiasts Ssangyong in Korea (otherwise known as Daewoo) have a range called "Chairman". They have 2 ranges, "Chairman H" and "Chairman W". Check out these engine specs... Chairmain H (1997 to present, based on the W124 Chassis), available with these mercedes engine options coupled to a 5G Tronic gearbox... 2.3 I4 150 148bhp 2.8 I6 200 197bhp 3.2 I6 220 217bhp 3.6 I6 280 275bhp <-- Still being manufactured??? (M104.941) Chairman W (2008 to present) available with these mercedes options coupled to a 7G Tronic gearbox... 3.2 I6 XGi320 222bhp 3.6 I6 XGi360 247bhp <-- Still being manufactured??? (M104.941) 5.0 V8 XGi500 302bhp |

Correct. In fact, 3.2L and 3.6L versions of the M104 are still produced in Korea today. Here are the engine choices available on the current Ssangyong Chairman W - not to be confused with the older W124-based Chairman H, which was recently discontinued. |
