Luxury break...
Please identify this car for one point: Make, type, coachbuilder
Mercedes 220 by Binz? Mercedes W111 230S Universal by IMA (Belgium)?
You are very nearby, to reach experts-status! Please correct the type of the car, then the 50th point will be yours! Locked for Alfa_Japan
There's one such vehicle currently for sale if I'm not mistaking? In that advertisement description the W111 denomination is missing. So I'll give it a go:
Mercedes 230S Universal by IMA (Belgium)
This car in my puzzle isn't a '230 S', as the owner says... immensly slower...
The 200 D then? (from the picture it's impossible to determine which of the available 4 variants it is (200, 200 D, 230 or 230 S))
:applause: This is Your 50th puzzle-point! :applause:

Danke schoen
Congratulations, I've promoted you to expert rank.
No more rookie puzzles for you, but you may post puzzles of your own now which we are looking forward to. :)
As Alfa_Japan stated correctly, the official name was Mercedes-Benz 200 D Universal, not Break.
Some pictures I took back in 1984:
To be honest, I saw the registration papers of the Italian car of my puzzle. There was no more designation to find, than only 'Mercedes 200D'. I used the term 'Break' only as a description for the body-version. You may be right, that this could lead to confusion, ... I think, it would be better to use 'estate car' than 'Break'.... but I cannot use the common Mercedes-Universal-title, if this isn't part of the car's official paperwork.
Maybe this official leaflet might convince you...
Yes, it does! Thank you very much
Thx "fromwien" for the nice additions and background info. On FB another version of the sales leaflet can be found.
