My favorite combination is the W124 with M103. Less power and less refined, but a pretty much bulletproof all-around package. No headgasket issue and no wiring harness issue. Possible valve stem seals issue, but that's easily fixed with about $65 and a few hours of spare time on a weekend. Less issues too with the older non-722.6 tranny. Get a 91 or 92!
