Errr... cheap W123s? Not around here. First off, they've got the rediculously unreliable and expensive climate control (the 240 does not), then there's the wagon's self-leveling suspension, and all the vacuum controlled goodies.

And then there's the resale value. Most ads I see for the W123 bodied cars are 3-4k even for the examples that need significant work. You can find a 240 in comparable shape for much less.

Sure, I love the W123s. A friend of mine had a turbodiesel sedan. Great car to drive around. Cheap it was not.
