This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 190E was originally ordered for the French market and later exported to Italy where it’s currently offered for sale. Showing 116k kilometers (~72k miles) this 190E is finished in Smoke Silver Metallic (702) over Black Fabric (071) Upholstery. Power comes from a 2.0-liter four cylinder engine mated with a 722.4 automatic 4-speed transmission. This car features an era-correct body kit from tuner MTS, 15” Ronal Penta wheels, a Lorinser wood/veneer kit, lowered suspension, power front windows, and more. Recent maintenance includes a comprehensive fluid flush, complete filter swap, new battery, new brake pads and rotors, new shocks, a timing chain service, ignition service, and more. Included in the sale is the original tool kit, manufacturer's book and literature, first aid kit, spare tire, and a clean Italy title.
This 190E received a repaint in the factory-original Smoke Silver Metallic (702) under prior ownership when the MTS body kit was installed. The original MTS kit includes sculpted front and rear bumpers, fender flares and side skirts, as well as a stamped MTS rear spoiler. The seller notes the body to be rust-free and the paint largely blemish-free with minor rock chips noted.
This W201 wears a set of color-matched 15” Ronal Penta wheels wearing Kumho tires measuring 185/65 all around with 2019 date codes. The wheel centers are paint-matched to the body and show only minimal signs of wear. New shocks were installed recently and are paired with lowering springs.
The cabin is finished in Black Fabric (071) which lines the seats, door cards and arm rest with matching MB Tex on the dash and door panels. Features include central locking, power front windows, and more. A Lorinser Veneer kit has been added to the car showing extended wood trim throughout the cabin. Light wear is noted throughout the cabin and all power features are noted to be operational.
The gauge cluster features a 220-kph speedometer with a mechanical odometer which currently reads 116k kilometers (~72k miles. Other gauges include a tachometer, fuel level, fuel economy, oil pressure, coolant temperature and an analogue clock.
The 2.0-liter inline-four is factory rated at 120 horsepower and 130 lb-ft of torque. The original 722.4 4-speed automatic transmission has been serviced. Recent maintenance includes a comprehensive fluid flush, complete filter swap, new battery, new brake pads and rotors, new shocks, a timing chain service, ignition service, and various wear items including mounts, belts, and sensors to ensure everything operates as intended.
This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 190E features an MTS body kit and is offered by the seller in Venice, Italy with the original tool kit, manufacturer's book and literature, first aid kit, spare tire, and more.

@rattytubes I should inquire with some importers, I'll make a few calls as soon as I can
Anyone have any insights on what it would take to import this to the US, in terms of time, money, and difficulty?
