  1. Are you hoping to get the full Russia set:-D. I believe that T55arv(did you ever get one) will be coming to the UK to be sold along with a BMP1 Both in Very good order and very low hours the Arrv has something like 300 on the clock. See you must be mastering the Foden, You must have the hang of the gearbox now!!
  2. Didnt somehave a 1 inch black reflective strip down the sides?? Seen a few Rapiers with it.
  3. All good fun by the look of it. Driving hard or mech fault??? The betting starts now.
  4. Try an easy pull or ratchet on to the rear lashing/recovery eyes and drive very slow with some good eyes on.
  5. Easy sub it out to a couple of Poles and let them do it:laugh:
  6. I'm sure it will give you something to do:laugh: If you need a hand I'll pop over with my AA tool kit:D
  7. Thoughts go out to his Family. Any news on what happened yet!
  8. Great videos like the bradley coming out of the mud!! You can hear the A-bar snap at the end ouch!!
  9. All the ones I have seen have 2 alternators fitted. not sure if they have a 12 and 24 ones together
  10. Looks like the amount you see at Beltring each year:-D
  11. You see a few of the new style seats for the Bedfords coming up for sale and they all have full harnesses attached. I think Joe public would pay for it to save all the walking!
  12. My Rapier was runner up this year:-D Nice to be in the arena again for an award and shake the hand of a Vet! not been in there since the AA Jeep won best runner up:cool2: a few years ago.
  13. Hi Craig not sure on what call signs to add! I have the military reg but only gave it a quick tosh over before Beltring:). I may even blast the whole thing and do it in Sand as there seems to be loads under the green(might have been over to the Gulf at some point). About time you made another apperance over here:)
  14. Yep its based on the M548 which is based on the M113. Nice pics like the one of the old girl drifting:cool2: The fault turned out be a snapped:shocked: Supercharger drive shaft. Managed to find one local to Beltring with the help of Mitchell Diesels and ALD Automotive in Horsham. Its a hoot to drive but you can see burger:-X all with the doors closed. It also got an award for best runner up Post war Armour.:shocked:
  15. Up for this one. As a group we should be able to get a few vehicles together for a photo or 2.
  16. Went to this show last year and had a great time. Great Site with an intresting history. Plenty of unusual vehicles on show. I remember waking up in the night to spend a penny to find a few deer wandering amongst the vehicles:-)
  17. I'm sure they have LT85 santana boxes the same as the standard V8
  18. Yep saw that one at around the same time on the M3
  19. Looks like a HAC one they are well bulled up like that and they have 4x4 Pinzgauers they are bulled up as well. Shiney green, chrome and white leather
  20. Didnt MVEE do a Lotus suspension version of the CVRT I heard a story that one hit a Cheiftian flat out and welded it self to it. It was supposed to be VERY fast even off road.
  21. I'm still here and still going to W&P. We have moved to the back of quiet camping:cheesy: I still go to W&P as its a great social event and would have the same amount of fun with or without the vehicles. I attend a couple of Military shows each year but attend a fair few shows with the AA Historic fleet again its fun with a great bunch of friends and would be the same whatever the vehicles were its the people and the social scene that we enjoy. Saturday Helen and I are flying to Germany for a long weekend with a German Family we met at Beltring 10 years ago again its the friends we have made in this mad hobby. In June I will be at a commercial vehicle show at Gaydon again a very different type of vehicles and people, but what a great bunch of guys and girls. Pop up and try this show its only small but has the making of a fantastic show. If you do go dont miss the Steel Boys show on the Saturday night:-D. I for one will still go to Beltring as long as its with mates this is what makes it special for the Wife and I.
  22. Funnily enough women/girls are often better to tow pole I quess they listen:whistle: If in doubt lift it
  23. We still use poles(AA) and you are right they can be a very abused peice of kit. People you tow dont seem to listen how many times I have heard "i will be fine I have been towed loads of times:undecided:" they then spend time on the phone drinking the coffee they bought. I tend to just slap them on a dolly rather than risk them wrapping a pole round the back of my van:shocked: One we had a customer decided to take a left because he new a short cut.:-D rumour has it it made a right mess of his car:-D
  24. Could do with it around Sandhurst as the woods are still on fire> And the little s~~ts have been out starting more all the roads in the area are rammed with a couple of the busy cut throughs closed and all the traffic on the smaller roads 1hour 45 to do 7 yes 7 miles yesterday>
