Hi Marek,
I am a former IMA universal wagon owner.
Had a 1967 200D IMA universal that was made for the US market.
Took me 4 years to restore that nightmare of a wagon.  It was cursed from the very first day I owned it till the last day, when I sold it.
Still wake up in the middle of the night from time to time in a sweat.
But it was such a beautiful one!

My dad bought a '66 190D Universal which we used in Spain. Avila, Cuenca, Segovia, Toledo and Valencia for summers, car was a real workhorse, loaded with six kids. Subsequently shipped to Puerto Rico, and could be living out it's retirement on the island of Culebra. It could also have rusted into the sand  :(
Probably why I have a soft spot for Mercs  :)
