I guess I'd feel a little better with it in the trunk, like your CLK, or on the C class (202) chassis or S class or SL(129). But the main point is there is rarely room under the hood in the present styles, although they seem to be changing things around so much that now it's hard to predict where the battery (or batterIES!) will be on the newer models. On the new C class, they did manage to find a crammed-in spot under the hood, although you need to take a part off to get to it, you can barely see it, let alone service it. Now the new E class has one dinky battery (like a cycle battery) buried in the under hood area, the real "grunting" battery is in the trunk. The new SL has 2 decent-sized batteries, again one in the trunk (the bigger of the two) and a smaller one under the hood.
