And the left rivet is not folded over correctly? Been off the car, a car?   Danny

I was not able to load a picture of the trim tag for this car but here is another March tag 03D that I know is real for comparison purposes.

Tag is believed to be real and never off according to a previous owner.

I do see differences in the tags pictured here. Maybe it's the paint build up on the X77 tag but I am still not a believer just yet.

I don't think it's an original, but hard to tell for sure with that picture.

So the car is "ALL" word of mouth by a pervious owner who says the guy he bought it from told him it was such and such, with no paperwork to prove any of it?
