November 2021 Classics Auction
1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.6
Only 38,600 miles from new
Registration - G185 ATL
Chassis No. - WDB2010292F666096
M.O.T. - May 2022
Odometer - 38,600
This eye-catching 190E rides on five-spoke wide-rim alloy wheels and sports a boot spoiler. It is accompanied by a fully-documented service history (a mix of main agent and marque specialists) up to 2016, when the mileage stood at 37,931, since when it has covered just 669 more miles – so is a genuine low mileage example. Moreover, it would appear to have had just the one keeper from new. The Benz combines maroon bodywork with beige cloth interior trim and is regarded by the vendor as having ‘excellent’ straight-six 2.6–litre engine and bodywork, and ‘good’ automatic transmission, paintwork and upholstery. It is now available for purchase complete with factory-fitted sunroof and a current MOT valid to May 23 next year. A clearly well-maintained vehicle, ‘G185 ATL’ should have many years of happy motoring left to offer.
The precursor to the C-Class, the W210 190 was Daimler-Benz’s compact executive offering from 1983 until 1993. Some £600 million was reputedly spent researching and developing the car, with which the company pioneered a number of technical innovations such as the five-link suspension system subsequently carried over to the C and E-Class ranges. The car featured anti-dive and squat geometry as standard and was available with airbags, ABS, seatbelt tensioners and other safety features generally well ahead of their time. There was just one body style – a three-box, four-door saloon. A total of nearly 1.9 million 190s were produced during the model’s 10-year reign, many of which are still providing sterling service today. Thought by Mercedes to have been over-engineered, it is considered by many owners to be a better option than the C-Class range that replaced it!
In summary:
- A warranted low mileage of just 38,600 with just 669 travelled since 2016
- Comes with a fully-documented service history
- Seemingly a one-owner car from new
