Subject: Re: [MBZ] Mystery Tank?
Makes sense, but why would they call it a "tank"?
I'll go back and look at mine. I don't think there is any bottom part to
it - the insert with the tools is one piece, not two.
Anybody else?

Looks like case for tool kit. Have to look for one (with tools) next
trip to knackers...
The wrench symbol on the lid is the clue I'm using.

Edit - the tank is $27. That's cheap enough that I might buy one for
grins just to find out what it is.
I also wonder if the tool box for $127 is the insert with all of the
tools....

Not military - fuel?
I was looking at a VIN decoder for my S500, and I happened to see in
the accessory parts section a tank that could be installed over the
spare tire, or so it would seem.
I looked the part up in the EPC and it comes up as a tank for around
$100 or so.
I know they used to sell tanks for the diesels that would go in the
spare tire well to extend the car's range, but I find it difficult to
imagine they would sell a tank holding gasoline in this area.
Here is the number and a link to a picture:
