FWIW, I paid $6k for my '87 Mercedes turbodiesel wagon (300TD), four years
ago.  You can acquire plenty of the very reliable 124 chassis Mercedes gas
wagons (300TE/E320) for < $5k.  I like the older Volvos, but anything past
the 740/940 series, leaves me cold.  Also, we just recently picked up our
Audi 100 Q wagon for a little more than $5k--it's a very very nice car, but
still not a Mercedes.
