1990 Mercedes-Benz 190 E review from Singapore
"Sensible"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioning, new compressor.
Radiator.
New tyres.
Small bits of plastic, easily replaced in Singapore.
Petrol pump.
General comments?
Fantastic car. Shame to scrap - but rules say 10 year old cars must be scrapped.
Do not choose white paint unless you have a maid.
Great at 200,000km and could do much more. Still looks like new. Very reliable and drives like a new car. But parts keep on having to be replaced, But that makes it feel like new.
