1987 MERCEDES BENZ 190E 2.3 - 16V 5 SPD, SMOKED SILVER, COSWORTH ENGINE

1987 Mercedes-Benz 190-Series 190E 2.3 16 VALVES Description

Nothing about the 2.3 - 16V was done for looks, it was all about performance. Compared with the standard 190E, practically every part of the driveline was upgraded. The twin - cam cylinder head was designed by Cosworth; larger disc brakes were fitted at all four corners,with vented rotors and floating calipers up front and solid rotors and fixed calipers at the rear, wider wheels, firmer suspension, limited slip differential, 5 - speed Getrag transmission, 10mm larger driveshaf, self-leveling hydropneumatic suspension, stiffer shock absorbers and coil springs plus heavier sway bars, wider wheels and tires.
I'm the second owner of this special automobile and I have always treated it with special care, I love the car, but do not have the time to fix it, I was planning to park it in the garage and replace the brake rotors, brakes pads, wheel bearings, timing chain and all the AC O - rings.
Hydropneumatic pump was rebuilt in 2012, have spare rebuild kit.
