With its Cosworth-developed 16-valve cylinder head, lightweight bodywork, and razor-sharp handling, the 190E dominated tracks across Europe. The Marlboro-liveried examples became symbols of an era when manufacturer rivalry, big-name sponsors, and bold red-and-white paint schemes defined motorsport branding. This 1:18 scale diecast replica preserves that history in stunning detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16 DTM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChassis Code\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eW201\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScale\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1:18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox.
