This 1959 Mercedes-Benz 190SL (W121) was built to be a more affordable and comfortable cruising car than the 300SL "Gullwing" it was released alongside, which was built to be a road-legal extension of the legendary W194 racecars.

The 190SL came with an inline four-cylinder engine producing about 104hp (77 kW) and 105 ft/lbs (142 N⋅m) of torque. With less than half the power of the 300SL and no gullwing doors, the 190SL commands about 1/10th the price of it's big brother, but can it still be worth it and a fun car to drive?
