I agree with Hendrik. Up here in NZ, you hardly ever see these wagons for sale.

Mine is insured for $ NZ9500 but as the salesman/valuer said, I could only expect to receive that from someone who was already keen on classic Mercedes wagons. Until I had it re-assessed for agreed-value insurance purposes, my insurance company figured it was worth about $NZ3500 - 4000 tops. Needless to say, revaluation was essential, to avoid the insurance company writing it off in the event of minor panel damage.

Fact is, no-one knows what a good model is really worth. A good indication, however, is that every time I attend a car- boot sale (trunk, for you guys down there), there is more interest in the wagon than in my goods. Also get about 2-3 inquiries on average on and off the street each year. Mind you, mine's a reasonably tidy example.

Cheers

Euan
