Factory W124 tool kit. Are these rare?

[W124]

Found a factory tool kit for a W124. Thought I'd share with the community. Are these rare? I haven't seen one before..I don't really have any use for it since I don't own a Mercedes right now ;-)
It's not in best condition, tools could use some cleaning up, but the fabric is good, it even has the stud to help when one is changing the wheels.

Extremely common -- EVERY W124 has such a kit. You can buy them new from MB very inexpensively, as well as individual components. You can get these out of just about any wrecked car.

The one you show is in pretty poor condition.....and it also looks incomplete (should have a couple of more tools included.

Quite often you can even find them with the original plastic wrapping intact (i.e. never opened).

Cheers,
Gerry
