On the Victoria Day long weekend, only the 190E still had it's snow tires mounted. The forecast in the mountains was for snow, and possibly lots of it. (I'll have pics of the snow in a few days...)

So, we took the 190E for the 1200km trip, without hesitation. It ran flawlessly, never missing a beat. It got 8.5L/100kms (28US MPG) as we took it pretty easy.

I would not hesitate to take off on a cross country trip in the 'ol gal.
