1986 Mercedes 190E 2.3 Cosworth 16V
HIGHLIGHTS:
An icon of motorsport heritage, this 190E 2.3 Cosworth 16V represents one of Mercedes-Benz’s most celebrated performance sedans of the era. Finished in Smoke Silver Metallic, it remains in good running condition with a neat interior that reflects honest use. Showing 157k miles, this example has clearly been enjoyed while retaining its original character.
Powered by the legendary 2.3-litre Cosworth-developed 16-valve engine, the car delivers a raw and mechanical driving experience that modern cars simply cannot replicate. The chassis is further enhanced by a factory electronic locking differential, providing improved traction and composure—true to its touring car racing roots.
Well specified for its time, this Cosworth comes equipped with automatic transmission, cruise control, electrically adjustable front seat, outside temperature indicator, and heat-insulating green-tinted glass with heated rear window. A true modern classic and a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts seeking an authentic slice of Mercedes-Benz performance history.
