And it’s even the most desirable model, a 300TD wagon

As a bonus, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! was parked opposite it:

Fun fact: the “T” here means  “touring” and not “turbo.” Meaning in theory, there could exist a "300TD" that does not have the turbo. The "turbodiesel" badge is the only indicator whether or not it is turbocharged.

With those bumpers and the funky tow hook, this is a Euro car.

That would be a pretty perfect two car garage.

Certainly , you would never have a problem with one of your cars not starting.

That would explain the German export plate on the front.

Theory and practice - W123.190 was the 300TD, W123.193 was the 300TD Turbo.

(There was also a 200T, 230T, 230TE, 250T, 2 80TE, and a 240TD (that must have been miserable to drive) .)

Ah, I strangely missed that, the rear bumper difference is so glaring, it stopped me there.

Surprised someone would bring this over, I would have guessed they are worth more in Germany than here.

Looks like a perfectly ordinary tow bar to me. What would you have fitted to it?

NA doesn’t use those dangly loop style hitches. On this side of the pond, you’ll mostly see a receptacle type:

Sometimes with a ball and bar attachment:
