1992 Mercedes-Benz 190 review from North America
"Reliable, funny to drive and comfortable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing big has gone wrong, since I am the second owner of the car and it has been on maintenance more often than scheduled, and every problem was solved quickly.
Only thing I should do: Brakes (4 discs + Pads), because car did run about 5000 km in the last 2 years.
I also should change a tie rod.
General comments?
This car is very comfortable, has a good handling and not so bad gas mileage (if running on 91 or more octane, otherwise you will see your tank empty within a few hours...).
This is not a sport car, but always have more power to give, no matter how fast you are going.
Also very reliable, and feels heavy and safe when driving.
