Hi, I have just put down a deposit on a 2.6 auto with front heated leather seats and a sunroof, I looked at the posts on here and used the advice towards the kind of 190 that I wanted, It is going to be the 3rd car that I use, so its really a weekend car, it needs a little tlc to bring it up to scratch and also a few newer/better parts, I will post pictures when I collect her, I am looking forward to owning the 190(though the wife took some persuading !!) and being part of this forum.

Hi nick and welcome to the forum, my wife was a tad grumpy when I bought my first 190,..after letting her drive it that all changed, I'm onto my third merc now and it's hard to get her out of it...she even knows what an ovp relay is..enjoy your car mate.

That's the way to go nick, get her cover and she feels like it's her car...no more moaning..first time I took my missus out in the merc she was still moaning when I let her out of the boot!!!!!

I was thinking it would be handy to put her on the insurance as I can then allow her to drive it back from the pub ;)

Don't think she will want to drive it much as she hates autos, more so merc ones with the foot park brake, though she does appear to be more interested as the week goes on :o getting heated seats was a bonus to wanting leather, though not much use as it will only be used in the warmer times....

Hi guys...this is also my first post. I recently bought an '84 190E and joined the forum yesterday.

The person who owned the car before me attempted to install a 2.3 compressor from a SLK 230 but lost interest...so I got car and motor at a bargain...I plan to strip the car apart and rebuild, starting with the body...will update it with the 16V body kit...then complete her with the 2.3 Kompressor....will probably drop the supercharger for a turbo sometime down the road. My main aim is to sort the body and get it running first. Since I live in the Caribbean, I will be ordering most parts from the USA...this is faster and cheaper.
