Montie, I have just seen your thread and can give you the following info:
1. I own a Mark 6 version 06 FF 12 - I have a full vehicle history if anyone is interested (plus loads of modern photos). It is in great condition and runs superbly.
2. I was a trooper in the Royal Yeomanry (Westminster Dragoons) from 1982-84 where I was taught to drive the Saracen, as well as the Ferret. The Saracens we had in Command Troop of the HQ Squadron were:-
80 BA 21
80 BA 52
82 BA 15
all of which were Mark 2 Command Vehicles.
There was also a Saracen used by assault troop which was 30 BA 67.
I have a few photos from this era if these are of interest.
Please feel free to contact me at mark.vickers@ashurst.com if you would like any more info.
All the best.
