1989 Mercedes-Benz 190 E review from North America
"A classy little high performance tank"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump at 120,000 miles, Alternator went out and killed the battery yesterday 146000 miles, ABS speed sensor is out and possible Fuel Pressure sensor may be going out., Dash lights replaced at 128,000 miles, Ambient Temperature sensor quit working. Interior is still like new.
General comments?
This care is wonderful, even with the repairs.
It is agile and handles very very well.
Very classy ride. I would buy again without Hesitation.
