KitKat Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Mercedes 190e 1.8 Automatic 1993/L 122k miles MOT June 2018 Decided to sell my 190e, and thought I'd first offer it at a special price to the Autoshite community, before exploring the obligatory, tried-and-untrusted route of eBay/Gumtree. I am looking for something more practical, fun and economical, so the "Panzer"s got to go Mot'ed til June 22nd 2018. No idea what it will need for the next one yet, but MOT history is of course onlineDrives nice, recently had new brakes, service, fuel pump, filter and relay, OVP, exhaust/cat and lambda sensor. Good tyresA few dinks and dents as I have attempted to show in pictures, as expected considering the car's age.Original M.B 1st aid kit in parcel shelf. Can't vouch for it's effectiveness....Low mileage at 122800 (will rise as used regularly).Seats a little bit stained and bolsters a bit worn, but interior otherwise aged very wellSpeakers work but can be intermittent.V5 present, no service history, 1 x key Will consider a swap or PX with something on here Given the 3 months MOT and hardly concors appearance, £800 is the price.Car is in Emsworth, West Sussex.

Peter C Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 “One key” is not an issue. The type of key that you have can be replicated for less than a tenner at any high street key cutting shop. GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BorniteIdentity Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 This is a very late one - by now the w202 C-Klasse had been out for a couple of months. My September 93 car was registered 3 weeks before this one. £800 is a good price. They can be tricky buggers to put a price on, as they do sell for very very good money in nice condition (my L reg sold for £2300, and it certainly wouldn't take £1500 to make yours like mine was).

83C Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 That's lovely, I've had a hankering for a W201 for a while now. Shame I don't have £800 spare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2MB Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 That is a good price, eventually demand will exceed supply and they’ll be worth big money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercrocker Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Nice colour scheme, too....The grey interiors make these cars feel cramped inside. Can't see myself ever being without mine and I am trying to justify another 190E in my head right now! GLWTS - that is a good price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLWS. Very true, although I feel 190e's are also a perfect example of the difference between what people seem to be asking and what they are selling for! You'll find plenty in this state up for £2k, but they aren't selling. Make no mistake, this is not perfect and undoubtedly needs work here and there, but it is what it is.

robinmasters Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 That is a good price, eventually demand will exceed supply and they’ll be worth big money I thought they already were worth more, but perhaps this is why.

GLWTSYou'd be suprised; a lot of high street keycutters refuse to cut car keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BorniteIdentity Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 You can get full key sets from Mercedes Benz. They aren’t in the slightest bit dear, and you can make sure you have both a main and valet key. Rock up with the v5, your ID and about £20 and they arrive back a couple of days later.

tommotech Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I’d really quite like a 190. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
