I also much prefer the styling of the 124 especially now that I have my Euro lights in. I've got a Jones on for a 124 diesel wagon, especially since the wrecked one came to live in our woods. Viewed from the right angle, it's a nice looking car! But I'd take a 123 if that's what turned up firs

Not sure of handling but the ride is certainly better in a 124. Not to mention fuel efficiency, ergonomics, cold starting,and interior noise and design. You really should try a 124 they are VASTLY superior to the 123. And that's not meant to denigrate the wonderful 123TD. I also much prefer

I have never driven a W124 wagon, Marshalll. Although what you say may represent an informed opinion, the later 124 wagon to my eyes appears to have less cargo room than the W123 TD, which would therefore make it less desirable under one or perhaps two of my criteria (comfort and/or praticality).
