Strange indeed. Chassis sans engine and fuel system has to be worth over $2500.

I thought you said the diesels were too expensive.
That seems to be the going rate for a 1987 turbo
with 100-125k. Decent 16v gassers might go 5-7k
and probably won't depreciate.

So, don't beat me up too hard.  I bought a '91 190E 2.6 gasser this week. 
It

has 99k.  Everything works on it.

I haven't picked it up yet.  I plan to use it winters while the diesel is
hibernating from the road salt here in RI.

It is a 201 with one owner- all records, original paint.  Accident cracked
front bumper plastic, which was replaced.  Owner showed all body panels 
and

matching numbers etc.

It has the blue MBtex which I love- and I hear that the 2.6 is a reliable
and powerful motor.  Yes, I know there is little space under the hood and
that the water pumps tend to fail with 120k on them.

Does anyone have a gasser 190?  What experiences have you had?  I wanted a
diesel, but the diesel 190's go for foolish prices and I just can't afford
them.

See photos at http://www.immersionstudio.com/190.asp

Anyways, it is a benz and that means fun driving and pulling it apart.

Half again more than I paid for my 190D but less than half the mileage...
   
  If he can't come up with a good reason for the swapped badges walk. When I 
started looking for my 190D my Indy knew of a couple 190Es. If you want I can 
get you his number.

The owner said that that the collision was front-end- and that the 
bumper 
cover was replaced.

I'm starting to think I should walk- I don't want to drive 3 hours just 
to 
find a wreck.  The guy's feedback is 99.7 and he really does seem 
honest.

I wrote the guy asking about the numbers. Let's see how he responds.

  Should I walk?  The car is $3700.

my understanding of this is that sulphur doesn't do anything good for the 
engine, but the removal process decreases lubricity.
  
  Will we have to add lubricity enhancers all the time now? what does the 
additive package do - increase the lubricity?

 The 3.2 V-6 CDI engine has been out in Europe for almost a year already.
 And they expect that the US market will have low sulphur fuel by summer
 2006, ahead of the federally mandated 2007 deadline.  I'm also expecting the
 ML CDI as well as S-class 4.0 V-8 CDIs before long.
 You might recall that the recent records made with the CDIs in the US have
 been with imported fuel!

 So, is low sulphur fuel compatitble with the older diesel engines?

Re: [MBZ] It's a Gas

Was there any year those badges were reversed?  The owner says all panels 
match with serial numbers and that there has been no repainting except the 
front bumper.


I'm suspicious- why would the numbers be backwards if not repainted?
