1986 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3 16V Cosworth, 77,621 Original Miles, 2 Owners From New, Rare Automatic Transmission, Great Running Condition 800x600 1986 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3 16V Cosworth, 77,621 Original Miles, 2 Owners From New, Rare Automatic Transmission, Great Running Condition VIN #WDBDA34D3GF187107 This 1986 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3 16V Cosworth is a fantastic example of one of the most sought-after eighties sports sedans Mercedes-Benz produced and, along with the BMW M3, represents an era of cars that will never be seen again… The condition of this car is very original and straight. The car shows some signs of age, especially in the paint, and has 77,621 original miles on the odometer. I am the second owner from new. This car retains every option available on a 190 at the time, including the special options available only on the 2.3 16V versions, such as the front and rear seats. BODY: This 190E 2.3 16V wears its factory correct and original Blue-Black Metallic paint, which unfortunately is not in the best condition, as you can see from the photos. It is peeling in some areas and faded in some others. If you need additional photos of the paint, please let me know. I'm happy to take more. The good news is that all of the body panels are ripple, dent, and rust free and don’t appear to have had any sort of body or accident damage. The glass and seals are in good condition and there are no leaks evident. The body trim, including the chrome, aluminum, and rubber, is in good condition. No trim has been replaced. There are some minor imperfections, but overall, all of the trim is in line with what the condition should be on a car of this age with the mileage shown. The composite body panels, fender flares, ground effects, etc., are also in good condition with no need for replacement, just re-finishing. INTERIOR: The interior is trimmed in the original black leather. The seating areas are in nice condition, with no rips or tears, but there is normal wear evident. The door panels are also in good condition, but please pay attention to the photos in the description. The dashboard has a couple of small cracks, which can be repaired, and there are two spots on the seating areas, one in the front and one in the back, where the stitches have separated and need to be re-sewn. The seat backs also need minor repair. All of these issues can be rectified with a good interior shop at a fairly low cost. The rest of the interior is in good condition and has normal wear and tear for a car of this age and mileage. If you don’t see something in my photos you would like to see, PLEASE ASK! The wood trim is also in decent overall condition and not in need of repair, unless your plan is to totally restore the car. The carpet is also original and in very presentable condition. The climate control system works, but the air conditioner is not getting very cold and will either need a charge or possibly a new compressor at some point. The compressor is still available and is fairly inexpensive. All of the windows power up and down and work, as well as the sun roof. The trunk is in very nice condition, the trunk floor covering is in excellent condition with no rips, tears, or missing pieces, and the spare tire, jack, and factory tool kit are accounted for and in very nice condition. UNDERCARRIAGE: The underside of the car is in line with a 77,000 mile Mercedes. Again, it is very solid with no evidence of any accident damage, but does have the normal minor surface rust associated with cars of this age. I've included quite a few photos of the underside of the car along with the rest of the photos of the car after the description in this section. ENGINE and ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The powerplant in this Mercedes is the original 2.3 litre 16 valve Cosworth engine. It is completely original and as you can see from the photos, well preserved. All aspects of the motor are in perfect working order, and the compression ratio is exactly where it should be. And yes, the car is fast. The engine bay is completely original, with all components in operational condition. Every detail of the engine compartment is “Mercedes Correct”. There is some wear to certain painted surfaces due to age, but overall, it is very presentable. All engine and drivetrain maintenance is up to date, including the following services: -oil and filter change -air filter replacement -installation of new fuel filter -engine coolant -installation of drive belts -lubrication of entire chassis -installation of new battery TRANSMISSION: The automatic transmission in this car is in working order and functions as a 77,000 mile car should. It is the original transmission to the car. As you already know if you are a fan of these cars, most of these cars were manufactured with manual transmissions. This car is one of the very few cars equipped with an automatic transmission. TIRES, WHEELS, and BRAKES: The tires are in fair condition but could use replacement if the new owner plans on doing any serious driving. They and are the correct and original size for the 1986 190 16V. The wheels are the original Mercedes-Benz wheels, and are in good condition. The entire braking system has been gone through to ensure every part works as it should. All rotors, pads, and seals have been replaced and brake fluid flushed. OVERALL DRIVING IMPRESSIONS: This 190E 2.3 16V runs and drives as should – It’s barely broken in! The 4 cylinder powerplant runs and accelerates smoothly and very quickly and the transmission shifts as it should. The car drives around town and on the open road. It has had all of the necessary service recently performed including oil-change, tune up, installation of new battery, and transmission and differential service. The only area I would pay attention to if I was to drive the car would be the suspension. Everything works, but it could use a complete overhaul at some point in the future, i.e tie rods, etc., not just because of the mileage, but also because of the fact the car sat idle for periods of time over the years. The most important part of the suspension, the self-leveling air shocks at the rear, are in working order and are not in need of repair at this time, although the accumulators will need to be replaced. PLEASE NOTE: This 190E 2.3 16V still retains all of its original or N.O.S. components! This means the engine, transmission, rear end, etc. are original or correct to the car. All of the numbers, markings, etc., are correct. THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN MODIFIED IN ANY WAY! It is an original and very special car that, as evidenced by the low mileage, has been driven very sparingly during the last 29 years… If you are serious about purchasing this vehicle, I encourage you to come, take a look, and drive it. I can also provide you with additional photos of any specific part you have questions about. You or your mechanic are also welcome to put the car on a lift and perform any drivetrain inspection you wish, including a compression check. Please remember, this is a 29 year old car. As you can see from the photos, it’s not perfect. Things do go wrong sometimes. That’s the nature of old cars. I have attempted to describe all of the high and low points of this car. Overall, it’s a great dependable car to drive every day or restore to its original glory. My plan was to paint the car, repair the interior where needed, work on the suspension, and enjoy it. Plans change and I’d like it to find a good home. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 800x600 TERMS: $500 DEPOSIT WITHIN 48 HOURS OF AUCTION CLOSE.

Developed in collaboration with Cosworth initially for the rally scene of the 1980s, the flagship version of the 190E series eventually went on to dominate track-racing and ended up on the roads as well, putting up a good fight against BMW's iconic M3. Even though nine times out of ten, people would choose the Bimmer over the Merc, the 190E Cosworth's underdog status makes it an equally appealing car. As Richard Hammond put it: "it was Cinderella, but the coach never came". But let's take it from the start. In the late '70s, the V8-powered 450SLC rally car started to show the signs of aging, so the Stuttgart automaker decided to replace it with a compact model. Jointly developed with Cosworth, the 190E never made to rallying though, as Audi took everyone by surprise with the Quattro, featuring four-wheel drive and a turbocharged engine. Mercedes' management didn't want to fight an battle it couldn't win so instead, they competed in the German Touring Car Championship (DTM). Motorsport regulations stated that, in order for a racecar to be homologated, there had to be a road-going version. So, at the 1983 Frankfurt Motor Show, Mercedes unveiled the 190E 2.3-16 Cosworth. It couldn't have been a more better time for this, as, just one month earlier, three Cosworth prototypes set a number of world speed records at the Nardo (Italy) oval, after being driven non-stop for over 50,000 km (31,069 miles). According to the plan, the distance was to be covered in 8 days, at an average speed of 240 km/h (149 mph). Six pilots drove in 2 and a half hour shifts and completed the task in exactly 201 hours, 39 minutes and 43 seconds. More amazing was the fact that all three cars finished without breaking down, only needing routine maintenance and, of course, refueling. The heart of the production 190E 2.3-16 was the four-cylinder Cosworth engine, based on the 136 hp 2.3-liter stock Mercedes powertrain. It was made from a light alloy, fitted with dual overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder. The British engineers made the valves as large as they could be for the given displacement and also used a Bosch K-Jetronic injection system. The 2.3-16 delivered 185 hp at 6,200 rpm and 240 Nm (177 lb-ft) at 4,500 rpm, easily revving up to the 7,000 rpm redline. It was pretty fast for its time reaching 100 km/h (62 mph) from standstill in 7.5 seconds and a top speed of 230 km/h (143 mph). Due to stricter emission regulations, U.S.-spec models had a slightly weaker engine, rated at 167 hp and 220 Nm (162 lb-ft). The power was sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual Getrag transmission with a racing gear pattern. That meant it had a "dog-leg" first gear, left and down from neutral. The steering ratio was shortened, for added precision, while the steering wheel itself had a smaller diameter. With a 0.32 drag coefficient, the 190E Cosworth set a new world record for the time. It was also a car that showcased many advanced engineering solutions, such as an electronically controlled limited-slip differential (LSD) and self-leveling hydraulic suspension on the rear axle. Inside, leather-clad Recaro sports seats provided ample support during fast cornering, alongside the aggressively shaped rear bench, while the instrument panel had additional gauges – oil temperature, voltmeter and stop watch. Only two exterior colors were available, the Blue-Black metallic and Smoke Silver. In 1984, driving a 190E Cosworth, Ayrton Senna, a relatively unknown driver at the time, won the first race held on the shortened Nürburgring, signaling the birth of two very big stars. But the 2.3-16 was just the beginning of the 190E Cosworth saga. In 1988, a new model followed, the 2.5-16. It had a bigger, 2.5-liter engine, delivering ten more ponies, for a total of 195 hp. There were also cars without catalytic converters, capable of 204 hp. Two new exterior colors were offered, the Almandine Red and Astral Silver. Overall, the 2.5-16 wasn't a quantum leap, but it did help the 190E Cosworth to keep up with its arch nemesis, the E30 BMW M3. Until 1988, the 2.3-16 was raced in different touring car championships by privately owned race teams. When Mercedes officially entered DTM, a new road going version was needed for homologation. This is how the 2.5-16 Evo I limited edition came to be. Only 502 units were built, featuring the same 2.5-liter 195 hp engine, with slight modifications. The powertrain had a shorter stroke and bigger bore, which allowed it to rev higher. Also, the rotating masses were lightened, lubrication improved and cam timing altered. The running gear received the most important upgrades, being optimized for heavy track use, as more and more 190E Cosworth owners were entering weekend races. For those wanting more performance, Mercedes also offered a DM18,000 PowerPack developed by AMG, delivering 30 extra horsepower. The upgrade included different camshafts, larger throttle body and more aggressive engine management. The intake and exhaust systems were optimized as well. The 1990 Geneva Auto Show saw the introduction of the Evo II, the most capable of all 190E Cosworths. This time the engine was considerably more powerful, churning out 235 hp and 245 Nm (181 lb-ft) of torque, the latter constant between 5,000-6,000 rpm. Tipping the scales at just 1,300 kg (2,866 lbs), the Evo II could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 7.1 seconds and reach a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) – impressive figures back then. The Evo II had an adjustable sports suspension, with three height levels, operated by a switch placed to the left of the steering wheel. Front passengers were given even more aggressive sports seats, while the rear bench was configured for only two individuals. An extensive bodykit, boasting an oversized rear win and blistered wheel arches, made the Evo II downright menacing and aerodynamically more efficient, with a drag coefficient of only 0.29. The Evo II had a limited run of 502 units, 500 painted in black, while the last two were silver. Base price was DM115,260, approximately €58,932 in today's currency. Granted, that was a lot, but, hey, good things are never cheap. By Csaba Daradics

I have dreamed of owning this car for years! I love this car and am only selling it because I started a new business that requires me to drive to different cities several times a month. I do not want to abuse this car by adding tons of miles to it so I must sell it now however I am not in a rush. This Mercedes is a standard 2.3 - 8v four cylinder. Car is in great interior and exterior condition and runs great. I had a full check up done 4 months ago and everything was in good condition, also I have done recent oil change. The only issue with the motor is that it is leaking oil. Good:-Transmission shifts smoothly and quietly-Interior is in excellent condition - has original floor mats-Leather seats are in impeccable shape-New dashboard, it is black (see photos)-Heat works Bad: -Mirror in passenger sun visor has come loose, needs to be glued, still stays in place.-Back interior break light has come loose, it is being held with electrical tape (see photo).-Minor rust 'dots' on the body (car has 2-3). There is also rust on one area of the body (photographed).-A/C not blowing cold air, but heat does work. Car is located in the city of Chicago. Buyer must pick up, I can assist with shipping arrangements if need be. I can be reached via text to answer any question at 312-785-2774 my name is Ryan. Would be interested in a trade for a small compact car: Toyota Yaris, Honda Fit, Scion XD
