For sale is my 1987 Mercedes 190e 2.3-16 in fantastic blue/black finish. Manual with 5 speed dogleg. Electric sunroof, heated mirrors.
Decided to have an early mid life crisis and buy a motorbike so have to sell this to fund it.
143k miles which may rise from occasional use.
MOT November 2015
Private plate MBZ 6828 included
Exterior:
Body is in fantastic condition as you can see in the pics with paint in great condition, both sides were resprayed earlier this year to correct some blemishes picked up over the years and the outcome is very nice indeed. Underneath the car is rot free and fully undersealed to have it last another 27 years.
Engine:
Starts on the first turn every time, warms up quickly then holds it temperature perfectly whether cruising or in traffic. On a recent 350 mile round trip it performed flawlessly and only used 3/4 of a tank. Fully serviced in September along with a new Sachs clutch and new propshaft doughnuts. Currently has straight pipes in place of a rear back box, the fit isn't great and the sound can be an acquired taste although good sound proofing means it's unobtrusive in the cabin and it does sound nice at full chat with the windows down in my opinion.
Suspension:
Original suspension slightly lowered all round using low profile top mounts. Rides well with no knocks or crashes. Hydraulic rear suspension fluid changed in September. I also have a full brand new H&R shock and spring kit that can be included for the right price.
Wheels and Tyres:
16" alloys from an Evolution 1 car in fantastic condition. Fulda Tyres all round with plenty of tread.
Interior:
Showing it's age but completely functional. Full black leather interior with no rips or tears. Momo wood steering wheel and wood gearstick. Fully functioning dash aside from a few duff illumination bulbs. Oil temp, amp gauge and lap timer all functioning. Sun roof tilts and slides perfectly, as does the electric mirror and all of the windows. Heating function of both mirrors fully functional. MP3/CD stereo with uprated speakers all round, will include U2: The Best Of 1980-1990 CD for that true time warp driving experience (Please note there will be no price reduction for this). Factory option tape holder present as well.
Car will come with a boot full of parts including a spare intake manifold, wheel bearings, handbrake shoes and shaded rear lights.
Also have a full set of Clim-Air wind deflectors that can be included for the right price.
Great chance to buy a usable example of an appreciating classic.
