I'd go with the 202 chassis. My favorite as far as being just a rock solid car would be a C230, but not a Kompressor. Not that the Kompressor is that lousy, but they do have a few things that can go on due to the Kompressor (engine lights and like that). They only made the naturally aspirated C230 for 1 or 2 years though.
The 201 isn't that bad, but with a 201 or 202, the trick is to find one that was MAINTAINED. Too many bought them as a cheap way to have a Mercedes, and then never knew they had to be maintained better than what they were used to owning, or maybe couldn't even afford the maintenance?
Look for service records!
