Just a little FYI. The grille badge and certificate are in Kilometers. So what you qualify for is a 250,000 KM badge. The certificate is very nice, however, it's not a "normal" size. If you were to frame it, you will need to trim a little off the top/bottom, to get it to fit in a standard 8 1/2 x 11 picture frame. The cert. is about 11 1/2- 3/4 inches long. You will need to trim some to frame it. Also, the cert. is written in German.
