IIRC the fuel tank is baffled at the bottom, to minimize fuel starvation when accelerating (forwards or sideways).

Same reason they made one of the mirrors wider, and the other taller.
300D: Lack of seat support, at the corners. Or, a seat cushion that cannot be "tilted" for better comfort. The angle is the same, regardless of height or fore/aft adjustment. In the succeeding models, they added this function.
190E: Rear seat leg room. I sat in it the other day, and realized how cramped it was. Sitting in the back seat of my 300D is like sitting in the driver seat of my 190E in terms of space.
