Interesting. Unusual Grey too.

 

Hartmann. Two Ns. They tune Mercs. these days.

I have e-mailed them to ask if they tuned Mk2s, and if so, what was the 1.9 spec?

 

Stumbled over 2 magazines with a mention of these:

VW Audi Car May 1996 & June 1996. The first has a Mk3 GT in it (Golf GT E5), 150 brake non-GTI 1.8 on Weber Alpha. The second is a Mk2 VR, 2.9, 220bhp.

Mad, but it mentions that Hartmann once prepped a Mercedes 190E 2.3-16 cars for the 'Ring 24 Hour, naming one driver as Olaf Manthey, preparer these days of the some of the finest racing Porches available and repeat winner of the 'Ring 24 hour race from 2006-2009.
