This might be the most beautiful Mercedes Benz of all time

Beautiful car! The 190s with the 4 cylinder here in SoCal used to be very affordable until about 2010. Now people recognize how cool they are. Thanks for sharing!

Yep... a half decent one is 100K+ USD now. Great to just hear the rpms going up and down, with no one prattling on about what we all already know about these cars. His gloves and shoes nearly matched the interior, too!

Beautiful car, nice well kept leather interior too

What a beauty

Your gloves and shoes matched the interior! Nice color combination with the grey and tan. The sweet spot seems to be around 120 km/h. It labors a bit at 130.

Very nice, but would have been better if you had had the camera in a lower down position so we can see both the inside of the vehicle and the road ahead.

Wow, fantastisch! Eine solche Leistungsentfaltung schon in den50ern. Fast identische Daten mit dem heutigen Peugeot 206 cc Cabrio. Leistung, PS , Drehzahl, Geschwindigkeit, Gewicht, fast gleich. . Aber damals sicher kein Hausfrauenauto, wie man im Video sieht. Im Gegensatz zum 206 cc , der wohl kaum über 2000/Umin heute gefahren wird...

That 4 banger was huffing its Ass off.

Achei o carro muito maneiro, tanto que eu tenho uma miniatura desta em casa.

Unfortunately, BABVVEN and TEBBVEN laws will soon ban exhaust gas fun nationwide!!!!

Beautiful car interior. I'm assuming this is the twin Solex carbureted engine with what, 120HP? My 2002 SVT Ford Focus had a 2 liter, F.I. DOHC that developed 170 HP at 7,000 rpm and with a 6 speed Getrag dual layshaft transmission, had a top speed of 135-137 mph. I owned the 73rd one built out of a total of 4,788. The suspension was outstanding on that car too!

@@WeeShoeyDugless - Nothing new there sport! You must be genius to figure that out! LOL Those 190s are way overrated from my standpoint. People paying inflated prices on the 190 since the 300 SLs are off the chart. The 300s are real Mercedes luxury sport vehicles that can carry it off. The 190 is a cute little grocery getter, and that's about all.

@@Loulovesspeed Not a genius, just someone who is into his cars. Christ, you can even fetch over £100k for a piece of old Ford shit nowadays, cars that were rotting before they left the production line! Doesn't that tell you something about folks 'sport'? 🤣🤣🤣

@@WeeShoeyDugless- Speaking of rotting before they left the production line. My friend and neighbor's Dad bought a new, I think, 1957 190 SL roadster. He was a German American - Lienhardt, and enjoyed the car for less than 4 years when it developed THE WORSE decay I have ever seen on a car - not rust spots on the surface, but holes large enough to pass a cat or small dog through!! Unbelievable POS rust bucket. So don't try to make Mercedes sound perfect, because they clearly aren't, just like every other auto maker.
