Nardi fakes normally look wayy off, but this doesnt in the first pic so id guess its real but once you see how shoddy it is there is no way its genuine. I bet it looks worse in person
Did you get a horn button with it?

let me know what you think, i think its fake and if its real i am not please with the quality of it.
thanks guys

id say deffo fake,nardis are quality
yea i got the horn button. yea this ones all over the shop. stitching is so bad the leather isn't even perforated in areas.
so spill who you buy it off
im happy to pm im not posting it up just yet.
Does the wheel flex/bend easy. Thats a good way to tell. Fakes will flex in your hand.
A test I like to do:
Fit each wheel to steering column. Grab the wheel and try to twist it. If there is NO flex in the wheel AND the steering column wants to move, then it is genuine (or of decent quality at least). BUT, if the wheel flexes before the column wants to move, it is is low quality or a fake.
1974 MX22 MARK II CORONA HARDTOP COUPE - Awaiting a full restoration
I bought that exact model nardi in an autobacs in japan (so I know its the real deal) a few years ago. Yours looks very much the same, but the quality of stitching and leather on mine is perfect.
*edit* after looking at the pics again I would say that mine looks exactly the same, even the glued down edges etc.

Looks fake but maybe just a bad photo. Fake ones cost about $150 brand new, genuine cost like $350-$450 depends on who you buy off..
This looks similar to a few I've seen for $150 price..again, maybe just a bad photo..But the material is very very snug and tight On the wheel where as this one looks a bit rough and soft and sloppy.
