We have all had much discussion about why we like Mercedes cars (esp. diesels), and so much is intangible. Most of my friends concluded a long time ago that I drive old man cars. I got my first MB - a 1971 250 when I was 20, since that time I have had 5 more Mercedes 4 diesels and one gas. I am now 33 and I have always liked the looks of the wagons. I like the old 123 300TDs, and I like the 124 wagon, and I like the newer wagons even the brand new models. My wife thinks the 123 wagons are the ugliest cars on the road and she says I will turn into an old man the moment I get one. I am not really thinking about getting one, but if the right one came along I would.
