Wtb: Mercedes-Benz W201 190E 2.3/2.5-16V Cosworth

Re: Wtb: Mercedes-Benz W201 190E 2.3/2.5-16V Cosworth

the engine is ok...the interior had the same problem...flaking...warping...guess when the car was imported there wasnt as much mscp...

in the mean time..i found this yesterday at Nikko Millenia Walk :p
 
Re: Wtb: Mercedes-Benz W201 190E 2.3/2.5-16V Cosworth

I think the dashboard can be easily sourced from Propel or others. Door cards are still available in Europe too. I have seen complete interiors for the car (including the bucket rear seats) on eBay in the past. :)

Hi all!

the cosworths found in SG need quite abit of restoration and coupled with the LTA rulings...road tax COEs...its quite difficult to maintain it here...

cos i found a few in K.L itself and they are like fun...2nd cars to their owners...well taken care of in covered carparks...so interior mostly quite good as well...

got an offer of 55,000 ringgit...I think i just might take it up and restore it as a track car since its relatively cheaper road tax etc wise to maintain it in Malaysia as I do have a house in K.L as well so no problems with storage...

wish me luck...hee...thanks for e advices bros...very insightful for inexperienced classics noobie :)
 
Re: Wtb: Mercedes-Benz W201 190E 2.3/2.5-16V Cosworth

Hope you've been reading Mercedes Enthusiast. It's probably the only accessible Merc mag available here. I passed a bunch of copies to Mock last weekend -- you might want to check with him if any of them have a buyer's guide on the Cossie 190E. I seem to remember seeing one recently.

Good luck!

Bro, Tye Soon might not have all the parts....... maybe for parts that you are short of you might want to try Premier Auto Parts at Sin Ming.......
