230SL Vertical spare wheel fuel tank

[Lotus211]

I have a question, did all 230SL's with the 65L tank have the vertical spare wheel well, or only the early models?
Did only the 250/280 have the larger 82 liter tank?

Also are replacement vertical spare wheel fuel tanks available?

Only the early cars have the spare tire well. Tanks should be available but once the spare tire well is gone then you can use the bigger 82 liter tank.

The early fuel tanks can be found, here you have a place where you can ask: https://www.niemoeller.de/en/w113/w113/B042/473/1

Thanks for your prompt reply Pawel, it appears that only NON vertical spare wheel tanks are only available.
I will endeavour to repair mine. Merry Xmas

You can get them below as well. Shipping may be a bit to much though.
