Up for sale is Mrs SK's 190E 2.0 automatic.

It looks really good in photos but up close the paintwork is covered in scratches and lacquer peel.

The bonnet is the worst bit

Followed by a bit close to the boot.

And there are various scratches all over.

The tyres, brakes, shocks and exhaust were renewed 2 years ago and it went through it's last mot with no issues, next mot is due at the end of February.

Mileage is around 120k.

It does have LPG fitted but it doesn't run very well on it so we have always used petrol.

It starts, stops and drives fine most of the time, occasionally it stalls first thing in the morning when it's cold but always restarts.

There's a slight weep of coolant from the thermostat housing and the electric fan needs wired in, it's never overheated but it's something that needs looking at.

Interior is fair, there's some bolster wear on the drivers seat.

My smoke silver 190E has exactly that pattern of paint deterioration on the bonnet..........I thought it was maybe because my bonnet insulation is missing but maybe not, seeing this one.  

 

In case I haven't bored anybody with this before - If you have never tried a W201 do so!  

 

This seems an excellent example for the money, I honestly think these are the best cars built for the purpose in the 20th century.   By default, that means EVAH.  

 

Nice to not have the gloomy grey interior, too..... GLWTS
