    I was getting ready to head out for work and there was a program on in the background. It had John Wayne in it going over to England to pick up a prisoner from Scottland Yard. I wasn't paying too much attention until I saw what looked like a Mav. It was from far away at first then they zoomed in and the car turned in front of the camera. It was a four door and I swear it was a Mav!! The car was perfect but the only difference was the grill. I dont know if I just couldn't see it right but it looked as though it was kind of checkered. Just thought I would comment.
