The W110 'Fintail' was introduced with the 190c and 190Dc in April, 1961. The body derived from the W111 series but with a 145mm shorter nose and rounded headlights. The interior layout and dimensions were also identical to the W111 220b but with fewer options such as fixed back seats and bakelite trim dashboard. Because the 190c and 190Dc were basically a W111 220b with a shorter front, they offered similar interior and luggage space as the W111 series but with smaller more fuel efficient engines including a choice of four-cylinder petrol or diesels of 1.9 and 2.0-litre capacity. A total of 356,199 were produced between 1961 and 1965.

This splendid-looking, time-warp petrol 190 is reputed to have been first owned by the German Embassy. Finished in Dark Maroon and trimmed in red hide, it was the subject of a magazine article in September 2003. The c.34,500 miles currently registered is believed, but not warranted, to be correct, and this classic Benz is now offered complete with its original book pack, green log book, collection of invoices, V5C showing four previous keepers and old MoT certificates dating back to 1970. It is expected to posses a fresh MoT by the time of sale.
