    When Ringo Starr, the former drummer of the Beatles, bought this Mercedes-Benz
    190 E in 1984, the car was still a production version with a two-liter engine. Starr
    had it converted into a 190 E 2.3 AMG in England. His "Baby Benz" got a spoiler, a
    sports steering wheel and sports exhaust, colored aluminum wheels and a more
    powerful 2.3-liter engine.

    Cylinders: 4
    Displacement: 140 cu in
    Output: 150 hp / 110 kW
    at engine speed: 5500/min
    Top speed: 131 mph





    ....And Klaudia

    Nice car! When I was young (wag ka ng humurit, niwde11 ), the 190E was the "wow!" car for me.

    I went gaga over the 2.6 (straight 6) powerplant version for this MB body - that alone as stock was a fascination in itself way back in it's day. It already came with LSD which was seldom appreciated then.


    Oh yeah, she still takes my breath away today
