Hello guys!

First of all I think I'm in love! :wub: been looking at 190e's for a while now and I just find them appealing. Some may say its a bit weird considering I've never even sat in one lol

Having bit of trouble with getting to grips with the models though. So one of my first questions is, is there a 2.3 model? (As in not the cosworth 2.3 16v version)

P.s I'm sure I'll have plenty more questions so apologies if this is the wrong thread! Lol I'm from West Midlands area btw :)

Hello and welcome.

There was indeed a 2.3 8V model but it was never officially available in the UK. Some were imported from other RHD markets such as Japan.

It is possible and fairly easy to drop a 2.3 engine from a W124 into a 190.

Thanks for the kind welcome guys!

Mick261c, I'm quite open minded tbh! Just on the lookout and seeing what I come across. I can be quite picky so might take me a while.. :ermm: But I'm in no rush lol
