1984 Mercedes-Benz 190 E review from Singapore
"2 year European call option. Excellent!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
10 owners left the car in quite a state!
Changed all interior - $1500, wheels, tyres - $450, major service, brakes discs, exhaust bits, steering bits, mountings... all for about $1000. Now like new or latest 1993 model.
No faults since these changes.
Slight smell of petrol from somewhere.
General comments?
Excellent car.
Faster than a W124.
Can abuse it and it still is so civilised.
This car is the most effective car purchase in Singapore at S$17,500 with 3 years COE left.
