Not just in MB factories but in general cars are PKW's whereas trucks are
LKW. However in general talk cars are reffered to as auto's. Trucks are
shortened to lastwagen.

Subject: Re: [MBZ] 300?TD/TE W126...did it ever exist?
Yes - PersonnenKraftWagen...kraft means strength...maybe it means something
else too...? But PKW would include ALL passenger cars, but not trucks or
busses. minivans...don't know.

And we always thought our German cousins were SO organized! (Maybe that is
just trains)

interesting, I thought W just automatically preceded every chassis number.
So, to get this straight, my 300SD is a W126, but my 87 300TD is a 124?
A 126 300TD would have been great. oh well.
ALSO, I had enough of my oozing (in summer) and crustaceous (in
winter) rear view mirror and replaced it. You had mentioned you'd never
seen one (I think), so if you want this one
for experimentation/dissection/curio/whatever, just e-mail me a
mailing address.

The W stands for sedan/coupe. R for roadster, T for transporter (wagon)
in the old notation system (starting in the early '90s everything went
CRAZY). The is NO such thing as W123/124 wagon! It would be a 123/124 T,
not a W123/124 T. I don't recall Mercedes ever making an "S" class
wagon, but some of the independent coach makers MIGHT have made a few.
