    Be carefull taking it in the lake I sunk my MK3 . Make sure the seals on the ramp doors are good front and rear as thats were mine let most of its water in . Luckily nobody was around to laugh so shut it down and swam to side . Fcking cold my nuts were like walnuts. worst still I had to go back in to hook the chain up pulled it out with a 432. Checked all fluids and it started right up .

    The bracket on the front with the stop ends holds a bag of camo net poles , not sure about the bracket on the rear . Improvents that I think are a big plus are the drivers controls . ie. light controls on the steering yokes . and as you said the seats are a big + also the rear bulhead is removable for access to the rear of the engine. Also the dashboard is demountable and on a coiled wire so can be mounted on the outside for driver to monitor the dash while driving

    Thats where it is on mine but Andys post conflicted so thought there may be two fill points .Or 2 different set ups on the stormer

    They only seem to be a problem for drivers who cant drive but think they can. Plan ahead and your fine . although its been a few years since I have driven one around town .

    British and will fight If I think I am Right . some people just like to bow down to authorities and bureaucrats . Called Vosa today . As I thought He Just Laughed . and how do you think we are going to do a break test on a tracked vehicle. lol . Thinking about it you can use a g meter some 4x4'S dont like rolling roads so have to use a G Meter. If thats the case every mot station has a G Meter.

    IVA is more than C&U Its hard enough to get a new 2010 american import through never mind a MV . Sharp edges and headrests is just one thing that will fail. A 10 year old vehicle imported into the UK is except from IVA so why should a over 10 year old UK vehicle have to go through it . Lighting regs is easy and its clear theres 2 separate braking systems on the cvrt range anyone that has owned one knows it. Anyone know an engineer willing to write a report

    if your near manchester at any time you can gladly come over with your camera and tape regards dan

    sorry missed this post . yes the braking system is as you said and the same as my cvrt sabre and striker . thanks dan Great work .

    Anyone know were the fuel pump is and how you access it . also is the K60 a self bleed system thanks Dan

    not clear on this but would putting a pyro in the tube be illegal . also if dummy smoke dischargers are fitted and your a member of a reactant group does that satisfy the vcr act
