1987 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2. 3-16 Cosworth – Manual
This superb 1987 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2. 3-16 Cosworth presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a very well-cared-for example with exceptionally long-term ownership.
The car was purchased by the current vendor in 1987 as the second registered keeper, when it had covered just 700 miles. Although the logbook may show three former registered keepers, the car has remained in the same owner’s custody throughout this entire period. During a divorce it was temporarily transferred to a friend and subsequently bought back, but it has effectively had one long-term custodian since 1987.
Throughout his ownership the vehicle has been garage-kept and maintained to a high standard.
Condition
The car presents extremely well overall.
• Interior: Excellent condition with very well-preserved trim
• Dashboard: Completely free from cracks, which is uncommon for these models
• Bodywork: Currently at the bodyshop undergoing very minor paint correction
Mileage
Just 97, 000 miles from new, verified and warranted by the long-term owner.
Maintenance & History
The vehicle benefits from various invoices and receipts for maintenance and work carried out over the years. While the original service book has unfortunately been misplaced, the available documentation helps support the car’s history.
Included in the file is an invoice for a professional engine rebuild carried out approximately four years ago by a highly respected Mercedes specialist in Essex.
The car has also been serviced and maintained by the well-known The SL Shop in recent years, further supporting the quality of its upkeep.
Additional Information
• Right-hand drive UK example
• Manual gearbox
• First registered in the United Kingdom in 1987
• Long-term ownership since 1987
• MOT valid until 16th June 2026
Summary
This represents excellent value for a genuine, low-mileage Cosworth example with unusually long ownership and well maintained and looked after throughout that period
