    Ive daily driven my 190e for the last 4 years. Was my first car, and with nearly 400k kms it still runs like new. Having worked for Mercedes and now Porsche, ive driven more cars than i can count, and can comfortably say my little 30+ year old 190E outshines them all. It handles amazingly, looks great and is so comfortable. I will never sell it. It shall be passed down to my children and hopefully theres as well.

    I know what you feel like. I started off with the blue 1984 190 E 2.3 4 cylinder Gasoline engine, thought the engine was much too underpowered. So moved up to the 1988 190 E 2.6 Cylinder in signal red. Had a very creamy power delivery and wonderful well built interior and body. But it still was a tad underpowered for me. So I bought a 1993 400E V8 in Silver. I adored that car and the motor was superb I adored it’s performance was not that bad at all on gasoline. I drove 70 miles a day for work on that car. Very under the radar. I miss that car sooooooo much! I sold it because it needed a 10 K paint job. And it had 114,000 miles on it. Because I fell I love with a 1995 E320, black on black leather perfectly paint and interior with only 45,000 Miles. 12 years later I still own it. I love the creamy smooth 3.2 Straight 6 and how it sips fuel. But I miss the urge of the 4.2 V8. Oh well I guess you can’t have it all. 😂 I’ll never sell my E320 as it’s a limited edition model runout model and only has 61,000 miles on it now and use it sparingly among others. I adore the steering inputs in it over the 190E and in bad icy weather it’s like no ice or snow is there. A very comfortable and stable car. Why would I want a 1996 and newer ugly and cheaper built models?

    I’m addition the newer ones are technologically nightmares to have to fix all the time at the dealership. Although a bit better than Plastic Fantastic newer B.M.W’s and oil leak Audi’s. These pre 2002 Mercedes are the best In terms of quality and being just perfect. Then they got to build cars to a cheaper price point with bad quality everything and over overly complex. Then dropped the V12 the only one i wanted. And no soon will probably drop the V8’s too. There is no reason why I’d go for a new Mercedes. They should have continued to build the “Best or Nothing” like what they advertise.

    Interesting to hear her speak of the alternator failure. I had my 190E suffer an alternator failure on the way home from work in a new city I’d moved to. I was stranded and as I lived in the country, the car was towed home. In the ‘trunk’ or boot of the car, I had a spare set of Bosch brushes. The next morning, in my carport, with the alternator still in place on the engine, and having charged the battery overnight, I changed the brushes ‘by feel’ in situ. Reinstalled the battery and off the car went…didn’t miss a beat. I’d known about how M-B cars go through alternator brushes and to keep a set spare. Definitely was spot-on. Wonderful little cars. Now I have a C124 coupe to keep me entertained too.

    Nice video that captivates what makes the 190E so great. I got my W201 as my first car 7 years ago and it never fails to impress, it now feels like an old friend as it can always be relied on. You can see the depth of high-quality engineering all over it, the Monoblade wiper system is one such feature that showcases how good design can really make a car timeless. I still (almost) daily drive it. The M103 2.6l six-cylinder engine is silky smooth and puts you in a relaxed mood wafting along, it’s a car that makes you wish each journey is longer so you can follow the 3-pointed star ahead of you. Looking forward to driving it to Stuttgart again from the UK to one of the MB Museum car and coffee events.

An engineering masterpiece. With its 38 years already a real classic, which is even more accentuated by its nice classic white color. It's a keeper. I don't see myself ever selling it to be honest

The owner of this car is right, the parts supply for a car that ceased production 30 years ago is outstanding, okay, trim parts are getting a bit difficult but most of the other stuff is still available, even the little plastic clips that hold some of the trims on.

    @@MercedesBenz I hope the Car Factories will produce the car design again. New cars are similar to each other. Just boring.

    Love Mercedes ! We had a2002 E200 that went to 400+ thousand kilometers, and a 2010 E350 that went to 200K miles ! I know enjoy a 2017 E300 fully equiped which drives like a dream! My father has a GLB220d and my sister a GLB 250 which are the most practical and fun cars to have ! The family of MErcedes is unique !

    I have a w124 and a w123. My neighbour has around 20 190s, I should probably get one as I’d know where to get spares!

    We still use a W124, a 190D and a W115 240D as our only daily family cars, plenty of room, good fuel milage (OM601 & OM616) and there are still and hopefully also in the future enough spare parts available 👌. The 200D W124 already has 500ks, the 190D 400ks and the W115 is unknown but im guessing arround 200k.

    I’ve been contemplating a 190E as a daily driver classic for some time - I think they epitomise everything that used to be great about MB. Only drawback - no folding rear seats - so I can’t get my bike in the back. Other than that, a 190E would be a wonderful daily car!

    Day 1: Hi Mercedes. I have been a fan and lover of your cars, all my life. In South-Africa, back in the day Mercedes-Benz was only obtainable by certian members of society. There we were in my grandfather's brand new Mercedes-Benz w116 and than followed by the w123. You can just look at the year model of the cars and compare that to the political situation in South Africa at the time. Police stopped us to ask my grandfather were he got this car. It became a simbol of hope. I have been supporting and following Mercedes ever since.

    What a great story. I would like to buy W201 now, but I can't justify myself to have 5 cars🥲 25 years ago we commuted with one. The owner said it would correct rear wheel slide in winter just by letting letting steering wheel free from your hands. That is some steering geometry.

    We had the 180 in the 90s it was a demo with hardly any mileage. It was a beautiful car with beautiful engineering and limousine ride comfort. It was a little underpowered but that was its only downside
