It's a great disservice to call it that
Amazing what a towering rear wing, a good colour and proper stance will do to an old Mercedes-Benz 190E. Restomod is the word you’ve been thinking, but you need to unthink it. In the meantime yes, those are some of the best arches since the Romans built the Colosseum.Obviously it’s riffing on that 1990 DTM homologation special, but none of the 502 that were built originally has been sacrificed in the name of creating this.
The correct interpretation of all this is that HWA does things properly. So not one single prototype, but eight. The last two will be crash tested, four, five and six will do all sorts of dynamic development. But the first three are with Bosch for electronic development. And this green car is, as a sticker under the bonnet proclaims, prototype number 1.It’s a different story underneath.
Too smooth, too linear in its delivery, reckons HWA. At the next stage of development the intention is to make the turbos less linear, to introduce a bit more lag, more turbo-ness. It’s not intended to be a modern car, so they don’t want it to feel like one. So the gearlever flicks lightly about the gate. It’s a short, accurate throw, but needs more meat and weight to suit the car. Same goes for the steering and brakes. Especially the brakes, which currently have zero feel and not much more than zero power. Until your foot is near the bulkhead at which point they bite hard.
