1989 MERCEDES 190E AUTO 

The meticulous keeper of this Mercedes 190E treated it to no fewer than 35 services during her 36-year ownership, the latest being at 134,511 miles in 2024 and today the odometer reads 134,687. The car now forms part of her deceased estate and she remains the only registered keeper from new. The original order sheet from Mercedes-Benz, Bournemouth, totalling £20,157, reveals that the car was fitted with many factory options including Willow green metallic paintwork, leather steering wheel and gear knob, automatic gearbox, rear headrests, ABS, front centre arm-rest, burr elm dashboard and carpet over mats. 

We are told that it “runs and drives very well,” offering a “very comfortable and refined drive” and the vendor advises that the “driver's side rear electric window motor works but its mechanism requires some attention. Otherwise, everything is working well, including the original radio.” Its latest MoT was passed with no advisories and this remains valid to 21st October 2026. The history file contains a few recent receipts and MoTs, and the original handbooks including the stamped service book. All of this car's 35 services have been performed by just 3 garages, one of which has serviced the car 16 times in the last 31k miles. 

This sale includes the cherished number plate 1639 DD, which we're told been valued at £2500
