SVDsniper Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Hi All Interested to get some detail on best sources and likely prices I need to be prepared to pay for an armoured vehicle. Currently I'm looking at the FUG / OT65A with turret, diesel so cheaper to run etc but also like the BRDM-2 with turret. Any leads on where to start looking for a sound working condition one...don't mind doing a bit of painting but needs to be pretty sound and good to go working condition. Also what sort of prices should I expect to have to pay? Thanks in advance SVD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starfire Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much about a diesel for running cost considerations on an armoured vehicle; for the amount of actual miles that you will do, it really won't come anywhere near being your biggest expense. They all have terrible fuel efficiency and they all cost a lot to run and maintain, no matter what their running gear is, unless you find one that is basically a commercial truck with an armoured body, like a Unimog or large Ford chassis, but they're more usually police spec vehicles, than military. The OT-64 is cool and is kind of based on a Tatra 813, so they're mechanically not too bad, but I also hear that they're awful to maintain, especially if you want to swim it and have awful ergonomics. I'd still like one though Cheers, Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topdog Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I tried many many times to contact Russian Military but they never even bothered to reply by phone or email. Don't bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
