Oh, that's nice to see. A 190 that hasn't had its ride height lowered. All the better to get that lovely ride that no other small or medium sized car could get at the time.

Hi Charles
the ride quality on a standard car is remarkably good even in comparison to todays cars in my opinion
- not sure about this chap kicking up a lot of dust though

The early pre facelift models all had that 4x4 ride height. The later cars came down a fair bit but still had the fantastic ride quality.

I currently have three 2.6s. Two have the Sportline chassis, one is in Brilliant silver with a grey leather interior and one has a light grey check cloth four seat Sportline interior. One of these two (maybe both) will be coming up for sale very soon as I've just agreed the purchase of a W203 estate from a member on here. If anyone is interested, PM me for details. Be warned though, both are absolutely immaculate with FSH, low owners and the price will reflect their respective mileage and condition. They will not be cheap!
