If I lived in a dry warm place I'd own a W124 or W126 diesel to use year round....unfortunately the winters, roads, and salt here demolish them pretty quickly.
I moved onto newer vehicles but do plan on getting another diesel W124 at some point possibly....probably when my W210 dies, but so far its beating the odds.
My GLK diesel and Metris are so awesome I haven't really missed the older ones.
