1984 Mercedes-Benz 190 review from Sweden
"A very high quality product"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing ever went wrong with it!
General comments?
This is the most reliable car I have owned, and the most comfortable. Always started regardless of temperature, the only task required of me was to basically put gas in it and drive. It was a wonderful ride, good on gas, low on oil, comfort to max, and looked great as well. Fantastic vehicle.
Alas, all relationships must come to an end, and this one came rather violently. My son totaled this car a month after he got his drivers license. Thank god no one was injured.
