Mercfan. If it is turbo diesel wagons of the 80's your are looking at, then the numbers are simple. There were 2 wagon bodies for the 80's 123.193 (1981-1985) and 124.193 (1987). Obviously the "193" denotes a wagon. The engines were the 5 cylinder 617 eng. for the 123 series and the 6 cyl. 603 engine for the 124 series. Good luck finding a '87 TD wagon, very rare. We were extremely lucky, hell we weren't even in the market for another TD, but couldn't pass up the chance. For the U.S. market, MB only put the 603 diesel engine in the 124 series wagon for 1 model year, 1987. I think something like 1200 were sent here. These cars haul A#*!! compared to the 123 series cars. Trust me, I own both an '83 (123 series) and as mentioned an '87(124 series) TDs.
