Trade: NO TRADES
FS: 1986 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16
Price: $9,500
The time has come to part ways with one of my dream cars. I hate to do this, but it is time to move on to something else. The car was purchased from the Kemp Auto Museum in Chesterfield, Missouri in June 2011. It has been in my ownership ever since. Kemp is a private-collection museum that houses mainly Mercedes-Benz chassis ranging through all years of MB production. I spent a few years searching for one of these cars and was lucky enough to find the perfect one in my hometown. Here is your chance to own an iconic car in German history. A Cosworth engine – paired to a 5-speed getrag transmission – to a limited slip rear-drive differential is the perfect combination.
1986 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16
· Cosworth Engine 2.3L, 16-valve engine
o Engine head was designed/built by Cosworth
· 5-Speed Getrag Transmission, Dog-Leg 1st Gear
o 2nd-3rd and 4th-5th are in a direct down-pull line to quicken gear changes
· Limited Slip Differential
· Recaro Bucket Seats
o Driver and Passenger: Electric
· Interior Lap Timer
· 163k miles
Exterior
· Blue-Black Metallic Paint
· 17” ESM-DTM styled wheels*
o *The original Mercedes-Benz wheels and tires will come with the sale
· Falken Ziex912 tires
Interior
· Black leather (4 Recaro Bucket Seats)
· Black carpet
· Mercedes-Benz front floormats
· Alpine Headunit
o Power antenna
· Power Sunroof
· Gray carped trunk
· Full-Size spare
Cons:
· The odometer is currently not functioning
o The odometer is stuck at 163k miles; since the odometer quit working, I estimate approximately 500 miles driven.
o The Mercedes mechanic who has worked on this car since my ownership opined that the issue is likely to do with a faulty odometer gear. I was quoted around $300 for the initial repair/investigation
· Engine has a slow oil leak
o Appears to be coming from the oil pan gasket
o Never an area of concern as oil was checked and if needed/added prior to driving
· Minor interior cracks (dashboard near windshield/trim piece near headlight switch)
· A/C and Heater does not blow strong hot or cold air
