Think so? I'd say the wagon. I've never had a 124 wagon but my 123 wagon was 
the most comfortable ride I've ever had.

Of course my wagon was a disaster but when it was running good it was the most 
pleasurable car to drive I've ever had.
My wife agrees, someday we're planning on driving across the US and I've 
already compiled a short list of possible cars
116 SD
123 TD - either turbo or manual shift n/a. A friend has a 4spd and says its a 
hoot. I haven't driven it yet.
aircooled VW microbus.

Obviously one of these things is not like the others...
In any event there would be a fairly big money outlay for the vehicle to make 
sure it was in tip top shape before the trip.

Any opinions, I'm thinking to buy a mid price range car in decent shape with a 
few issues and spend a few months and some probably not inconsiderable cash 
making it perfect.
As opposed to buying something more expensive that might have hidden flaws that 
we'd discover on the road...

The W116 is the ultimate car for suckering a tailgater over a rough
 railroad
crossing at 60mph. W126 may be as good, but I haven't owned one of
 those. 
It's not a stunt you want to pull in a W201.034, mine rides like a
 buckboard
compared to my 300SD. 

Mitch.
