It is possible, that the owner got a US badge and put it on his T3. A = few years ago, "Rabbit" badges were being sold thru German dealers to be = put on Golf Is, there was also a "Rabit Injection" badge which displayed = two copulating rabbits. Also, a number of stores in Munchen were selling = "Barvaria" badges which were put on early 70s BMW 2.8 and 3.0 S.

On my EuroVan, I replaced the "EuroVan MV" script with a "Multivan" = script which I purchased in Wolfsburg.
