Description

This classic car is for sale on Catawiki. To have more information or to place a bid click on the "BID NOW" button. .Starting from the base of the Mercedes-Benz 190 Type 201, the German engineers made many modifications, both mechanical and aesthetic...

The gearbox is a Getrag with 5 gears, the first gear is on the bottom left, very fast and precise.

The numerous aesthetic additions are above all intended to improve the vehicle's aerodynamics and the cooling of its components.
The aim was to serve as a base for the German DTM approval, which is why the aerodynamic attachments were already approved.
Thus, the bumper is now in 3 parts with a more pronounced front spoiler.
To accommodate larger rims, the wider, wrap-around wing wideners extend to the lower edge of the bodywork.
The rear spoiler is higher and wider with fasteners on the outer edge of the boot, unlike the standard 2.5-16S.
and
Only 500 of these were produced in 1989 for the whole world, 30 of which were produced for France.
The model offered was delivered brand new by the Jussieu Automobile dealership in Paris on 28 September and intended for the French market, it is thus one of 30 vehicles destined for French soil.

Blauschwarz 199U colour (anthracite grey metallic leaning towards black) with black leather interior, the vehicle in very well-preserved condition, without any signs of wear.
Belonging to the same owner for 5 years, it is used sparingly and started regularly in order to preserve the health of the engine (totalling only 130,000 original km).

This 190 Evolution 1 was always meticulously maintained, as demonstrated by the file of invoices, done within the Mercedes network. The number of owners can, of course, also be traced.

It also has a Mercedes certificate which certifies the conformity of the vehicle, which is matching numbers (engine: 102991 10000438 and transmission: 717404 00 018999)
This 190 Evolution 1 has a sunroof, leather seats, central locking system, original Becker Mexico car radio and user's manual, which makes it a remarkable vehicle in terms of its condition and rarity (1 of 30 vehicles in France).
An opportunity not to be missed
