The seller offers for sale a 1988 Mercedes-Benz 190E W201, a good example of the renowned compact luxury sedan. With only 46,000 km on the odometer, this car features an automatic transmission paired with a 2.3L four-cylinder petrol engine, ensuring a smooth driving experience. Finished in classic blue with its original paint, the vehicle retains its factory authenticity.

The 190E is equipped with a four-door saloon body and was designed with long-term reliability in mind. It remains stock, with no aftermarket modifications. Features include air conditioning, which is functional, and comfortable fabric upholstery. Originally imported from Japan, it was registered in Dubai in July 2023 and has since been stored in underground parking, helping to preserve its condition.

The exterior is in its original paint. The interior remains intact with all original parts, showing no signs of significant wear. Mechanically, the car operates as expected. While the vehicle has been well-maintained, it is essential for potential buyers to inspect the car to confirm its condition.

Introduced in 1982, the Mercedes-Benz 190E (W201) was developed to offer a smaller, more efficient alternative to the brand’s larger sedans. Mercedes invested over £600 million into its development, focusing on engineering excellence and durability. The W201 set new standards in safety with its innovative multi-link rear suspension, significantly improving handling and comfort.

The 190E was available with a range of engines, from fuel-efficient four-cylinder variants to high-performance versions such as the 190E 2.5-16, co-developed with Cosworth. The model became known for its robust construction, earning a reputation as one of Mercedes-Benz’s most durable vehicles. It was often referred to as “over-engineered,” a testament to the brand’s commitment to quality.

This model gained recognition in motorsports, particularly in the German Touring Car Championship (DTM). It also became a favorite among business professionals and enthusiasts who appreciated its balance of refinement and reliability. Today, the 190E is considered a desirable classic, appealing to collectors and those looking for a well-built, practical sedan.
