It’s over 30 years since the Mercedes 190 classic saloon was
first unveiled. It was designed as a blend of comfort and solidity. It shifted nearly two million cars before
finishing production in the early 1990s, and it still makes a strong impression
today. Big Motoring world reviews its success.
Practicality
Inside, things can certainly appear on the austere side with
simple colours and a thoroughly sensible dashboard. It works impeccably well,
imparting a feeling of longevity that you simply don’t find in other cars of
the era and certainly nowadays. It’s a cabin which helps to appreciate well-executed
engineering.
Driving experience
The fuel-injected 2.0-litre model made reasonable use of its
122bhp with a 0-60mph time of 10.5 seconds, and many buyers opted to equip
their 190 with an automatic transmission and it remains the more logical choice
today. The controls work with the
well-oiled precision you’d expect, and there’s the usual huge steering wheel to
make classic Benz owners feel at home.
Verdict
Durable and reliable, the baby Benz is nothing short of a
bargain. A cared for example will
outlast its owner, and if you want the perfect example of over-engineering then
look no further. It’s somewhat staggering to think that such a terrific car is
still available so cheaply, and while prices are rising it’s likely to remain
affordable for some time. Any model should be bought on condition, rather than
mileage, as they’ll last forever if you treat them well.
