SUMMARY
A UK-supplied, right-hand drive, example of M-B's legendary190E 2.5-16 in need of recommissioning.
DESCRIPTION
- Off the road for numerous years, although still running, this Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 is in need of some attention
- Introduced in 1988, the second-generation 190E Cosworth was powered by a 2498cc, 16-valve inline-four, producing (when new) some 204bhp and driving the rear wheels via a five-speed Getrag ‘dog-leg’ manual gearbox
- In period, it was capable of 0-60 in 7.1 second and over 150mph
- It's finished in Black Pearl metallic over an Anthracite leather-trimmed interior, offset by carbon-look trim around the gear lever
- After-market upgrades include 18-inch Wolfrace alloys, a Momo steering wheel, and rear light clusters (original steering wheel and light clusters are included)
- Supplied with numerous invoices from its time on the road and previous MOTs
- We encourage your viewing at our NEC Sale to establish just how much work will be required to return this desirable Mercedes to top form
