Wagon Picks for October 6, 2026

Six newly discovered, previously unfeatured wagons across three listing websites, with exactly two per website. Direct pages checked October 6, 2026; newly discovered does not mean newly listed. Bring a Trailer and Cars & Bids were both searched; the current Cars & Bids wagon result checked had ended October 5 and was excluded. Auction bids are snapshots, can change, exclude fees, and closing times can extend. Conflicting title/model-year and paint-code details on the modified Mercedes are flagged, and generic dealer specifications are not presented as vehicle-specific facts.

A Japanese-market W210 longroof with a 5.4-liter M113, AMG Monoblocks and understated black paint is a properly interesting sleeper. More than $7k of recent work is described. The VIN paint code points to Aspen Green although the car appears black, and the New Jersey title lists it as a 1997; verify the conversion and paperwork.

US$33,500 · asking price

7,735cc petrol · cylinder layout not stated in advert details3-speed automatic74,892 miles

This blue Astro conversion turns a Fleetwood Brougham into an enormous, wood-sided American estate with unmistakable presence. Its 7,735cc engine and three-speed automatic suit the scale. Because this is a coachbuilt conversion rather than a regular factory wagon, inspect the bodywork, rear structure and documentation carefully.

A white W124 estate with a sunroof, original books and certification offers classic daily-driver appeal without pretending to be a performance car.

Yellow paint, slim pillars and a remarkably intact seventies shape make this ordinary Datsun unusually charming. The dealer says it has been in its collection since 2020. Its notes describe both 1.8- and 2.0-liter possibilities and multiple transmissions for the model line, so verify this individual car's engine, gearbox and mileage records.
