1989 Mercedes Benz 190e 2.6 White Low Miles on 2040-cars
Year:1989
Mileage:96180
Location:
Western Springs, Illinois, United States
|
Low miles with solid, clean body and interior, best of the three 190E's I have owned. Daily driver until last month when vehicle suddenly stopped in traffic; restarted after waiting a couple minutes. Happened twice more in the next 30 miles, then no problems for over 100 miles, so thought it was just bad fuel or a clogged fuel filter, but then happened again. MB Westmont says it needs a fuel distributor (also as a separate issue the SRS light is on).
Hard to let this one go after investing several thousand dollars in the last year replacing brakes, steering bushings, A arms, springs front and rear, but my loss will be your gain. (My first 190E had well over 200,000 miles before an accident ended it, so I can attest these models are durable.) As photos show car is in very good to excellent condition; like new interior and just a few blemishes on the doors from parking lot dings but you have to get close to see these. Power seats, power sun roof work. Radio works but as is common with the 190E's the power antennae is frozen. Doors, glass, seats, carpeting, interior trim look great. Started and driven every day in our Chiberia winter (-15 degrees). Averaged 22 mpg in daily commute. Tires are Hankook Mileage Plus II and have at least 12,000 to 15,000 miles left. Full size spare in trunk. Original manuals and even the First Aid kit in the rear deck compartment. So, your choice, buy it to fix it up or as a donor for your 190E or hate to say it, part it out. Sold as is, where is, with above known issues. Would plan on bringing a car hauler because the fuel system gives no warning before the car stops. If you are in the area, stop by to take it for a drive around the condominium parking lot right next door. I can answer questions about the last three years, but the previous owner obviously maintained the car like a prized possession and drove it very little. |

Mercedes fits new C-Class with AMG kit
Sat, 28 Dec 2013It's only been a week and a half since Mercedes-Benz revealed the new C-Class, and it'll likely be a while yet before the replacement for the C63 AMG comes along. But if you want to see a preview of what it'll look like, look no further than the AMG aero kit that has just surfaced.
Expected to debut on the new C-Class at the fast-approaching Detroit Auto Show, the AMG Line Exterior Pack adds a new bumpers front and rear, side skirts, dual exhaust tips, mesh grille, aluminum window frames and - most importantly - 18-inch alloys packing upgraded brakes and fitted to a lowered sport suspension. All of which will help any C-Class look the part, even if the engine remains stock.
Brabus boosts big Benz plug-in hybrid
Thu, May 28 2015With vehicles like the BMW i8 and Porsche 918 Spyder, the Germans have demonstrated as well as anyone that "performance" and "hybrid" can go in the same sentence. And now Brabus is plugging in to the performance hybrid station as well. Though nowhere near as extreme as the aforementioned PHEV sports cars, the Brabus PowerXtra B50 Hybrid performance kit kicks the Mercedes S550 Plug-In Hybrid up a notch. The electric side of the powertrain remains untouched, but the internal combustion engine has been boosted by 51 horsepower and 52 pound-feet of torque. That gives the 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 a total of 385 hp and 405 lb-ft, which is nothing to cough at – but with the electric boost kicking in, the vehicle now packs a combined output of 493 hp and 656 lb-ft. That slots its twist figure in between that of the S600 and S63 AMG. As a result, the big Brabus hybrid will now reach 62 miles per hour from a standstill in just 4.9 seconds (down from 5.2) – almost as quick as the 12-cylinder model but with half the pistons – though the top speed remains pegged at 155 mph. Naturally, Brabus didn't stop there, giving the sedan a new exhaust, aero kit, rolling stock and interior, all catered to the customer's specifications. BRABUS PowerXtra B50 Hybrid with 368 kW / 500 hp (493 bhp) and 890 Nm of torque The eco-friendly performance upgrade for the new Mercedes S 500 PLUG-IN HYBRID For more than 35 years, BRABUS has been the synonym for powerful high-performance automobiles and exclusive refinement at the highest level of perfection. One philosophy has always been paramount in all these years: combining top performance with exemplary eco-friendliness, immaculate durability and perfect everyday practicality. With the new BRABUS PowerXtra B50 Hybrid performance kit for the new Mercedes S 500 PLUG-IN HYBRID, the engine specialists of the world's largest independent tuner once more demonstrate their unrivalled know-how. The power increase of the V6 engine by 38 kW / 52 hp (51 bhp) and the boost in torque by 70 Nm (52 lb-ft) bumps the system output of the hybrid sedan to 368 kW / 500 hp (493 bhp) and system torque to 890 Nm (656 lb-ft). As a result, the luxury liner sprints from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.9 seconds, and impresses in daily driving with even further enhanced superiority. Due to the hybrid system, the top speed remains electronically limited to 250 km/h (155 mph).
VW looking to MAN up, ditch Mercedes van deal
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Unlike the US, the commercial truck market throughout the rest of the world is chocked full of competitors from many different automakers. Since 2006, Volkswagen has had a fullsize van called the Crafter that was a result of a partnership with Daimler AG and based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. This partnership is supposed to last through 2016, but Reuters is reporting that VW might be looking to end its relationship with Daimler and create its own van in cooperation with German truck and bus maker MAN.
The article says that VW AG has more than a 75-percent stake in MAN, which would essentially be keeping the new commercial vehicle in-house. Even if VW bolts, Daimler still has a deal worked out in the commercial truck industry between its subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso and Renault-Nissan to supply the other with different trucks.
