1987 Mercedes-Benz 190-Series Description

You are viewing a 1987 Mercedes 190DT turbo diesel. As many of you are probably aware these are very rare cars with only around 1300 being produced. Only for 1987. I purchased this car from an elderly gentleman but was unable to continue to drive. I have owned this car for close to one year and put on several thousand mile without issue. Currently I have too many cars and need the room.

Current mileage is 167,xxx. I have a clear tittle in hand which is in my name. Its red on palomino color combo looks great and was one of only a few produced with this combination. The car does have clear coat issues from the Florida sun. A few paint chips and small dents are also present but this car would show great with a fresh coat of paint.

The wheels are AMG penta’s, ery rare here in the US. These wheels alone can sell for several thousand. They are wrapped in new firestone firehawk tires with have around 500 miles on them. No oil leaks are coming from the undercarriage. It has been parked in a garage my entire ownership and has not dripped one spot of oil onto the floor. The a/c is currently not working and I am not sure as to why. The cars transmission shifts great, ice and smooth when driving slowly but quick and firm when on the throttle. You can feel the boost from the turbo when accelerating, hese little turbo diesels really move! Last time I was on the highway the cruise was working as it should. Stops well and does not give any strange noises over bumps.

Interior is in good shape. All door panels and carpets are nice without any tears or large stains. The driver’s seat does have some wear in the normal place but nothing that couldn’t be repaired cheaply. Dash has a small crack in the center, othing major like other 190s. Its steering wheel is in excellent shape. Horn is functioning. No warning lights are on. Thermometer read out is temperamental, ometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. When it works it shows the temp accurately. Headliner is very nice, o sags or tears. Sunroof functions great, oves back and forward as it should. The passenger’s rear window is not moving but all others go up and down quickly. Trunk carpet is in nice shape, as a full spare, ack and tool kit are present. This car does need a little work on a few things but is an excellent example of a rare Mercedes.

Being sold AS-IS. Please ask all questions before submitting a reasonable offer and I would encourage anyone to come see in person if possible. Buyer is responsible for shipping costs but I will accommodate/assist any car transporters. Feel free to send messages and thanks for looking.
