Your best bet on dating the car is to call a dealership with the vehicle identification number located on the A pillar plate or on the engine bay barrier in front of the battery.
The W201 190 is the carburetor (Solex?) version which was offered in 1.8 (intro 1990 w/72 HP) and 2.0 (intro 1982 w/90 HP) litre versions. The 2.0-litre engine with the carburetor was the base model until 1990, when it was replaced by the 1.8-litre (there were models rebadged as the '180). The carb models were not exported to the USA due to emission requirements.
