Finally got a 190e

[190omg]

Just thought Id officially say hello here ! I recently purchased a 190e and am in the process of restoring it and building a retro sleeper. Its all about the older cars for me, big 80's/90's fan.

looking forwards to meeting members out and about this year.

Ive posted a picture in the members gallery of my ride, comments, suggestion and recommendations welcome.

Cheers

Si.

To answer your question in the Members gallery post (we cannot reply to them as its a clsoed thread). Put some orignal wheels back on and keep her stock.

Congratulations, nice car.

I think 190's look smart with the 8 hole alloys, but then I'm an old fart.

What does retro sleeper mean?

The biggest standard tyres run on the 190 were 205/55R15 on the 2.5-16V [evo excepted]
have a look at this forum Wheels & Tyres

Hi, welcome to the forum!

I like the 8x16" 15-holes most!!
They give the baby a sporty touch.
Guess you purchased the 7x15?
