The 124 and 201 are both fairly light and have greater "sail area" than a heavy 450SL, so it stands to reason that they may move around a little bit more in a high cross wind component situation and require more steering correction to maintain course, but they are basically very stable.

I recall in the Silver State Classic Challenge cresting a rise at about 125 MPH and feeling a good "bump" from the left - probably due to a wind shear. It really got my attention, and I instinctively steered slightly right for a fraction of a second, but it was over almost before I realized what happened. Other that that little incident the car showed excellent stability over the rest of the 92 mile course.

I also recommend front pressure bias, especially in 201 six-cylinders because of their high front weight bias. I run my 205/55ZR-15s at cold pressure of 38 front and 34 rear, and reset them when they drop to 36/32.
