A few other things to consider:

RWD cars are great in the snow with snow tires.

Mechanical parts are easy but it’s going to be very hard to find replacement trim and other minor plastic parts for any of these cars. So try to find something as complete as possible.

If you want an interesting Mercedes the 190E 2.3-16V is still a pretty reasonably priced classic. Or you could import a 2.5 Evo from Japan. Or for bonus points find a W202 C36 or C43 and manual swap it.
