  1. Its Swedish.Bit of a flop,if you ask me,as the whole tank had to turn in order to fire the gun.Only good thing about it,was the fact it had an automatic loading system.
  2. I will be attending the annual Fighting Torque super car shoot out tomorrow.The venue this year has changed from Wattisham Air station to RAF Bentwaters,due to distance and safety.One of my mates,is trying to get his boss to give him permission to fly a AH64 the short trip over for us all to have a good look at.The event is going to be filmed for Top Gear and will feature in Autocar magazine.My first three runs are up against some serious opposition.1.TVR Sagaris 2.Lamborgini Murcilago3.Dodge Viper,then in to the knock out stages.Whilst there i will try and get some pics of the base,as it was last used by the 81st TFW flying A10,s.
  3. Yep,you cant beat the old Wheels and Tracks.Excellent quarterly publication.I was always in I.S.O. books in Waterloo getting mine.Mind you,that was a brilliant bookshop.
  4. 1.MMI 2.CMV 3.LRO 4.Landrover Enthusiast 5.EVO 6.Classic and Sports Car 7.Sprint (Note: 1and 2 are inferior to the much better informed old publication of Wheels And Tracks)But they are better than nothing.
  5. In service 101.More to follow.........................
  6. I have seen one just like that,and in that condition being restored by someone at the moment.Its going to cost the best part of £20,000,by the time its finished.
  7. I bought an old fridge that came out of a camper van for £20 of e-bay.More than does the job,also bought a shower from some guy in the states.Runs on 4 D cell batterys.Its domne two Beltrings now,and been used twice a day for the six days i have been there,and still on the original batterys.
  8. Any of his Saracen?.I dont think i have one of that.
  9. What a thread!.I'm going to have to start digging now,to get some pics up on here.Thanks Richard.:thumbsup:
  10. What ever happened to Mark Farmer??.Another one who was prolific on the scene,but then just seems to have dissappeared??.It seems as though there is an X-Files situation for the distant members of the MV world.
  11. Nice to meet you Stuart.A couple of pics ive slung in....... My Jeep next to Marks Ward. Mark,s(MM) Nicely turned out Jimmy And some of the gang TooTallMike,Mark(MilitaryMayhem)His daughter.Mark Heliops.And his twin sister????????Michelle.(I think).Cant see the resemblance.
  12. Mod Edited.. mind your language please this is a family show.. thank you.
  13. At last!Someone on here with similar interests to me.Love the XKR.I had one of the first XK,s when they were launched back in 96.My old man used to export a lot of Mk II Jags out to the states back in the early 70,s.Regarding the Viper V10.Then your next project could be to bung it in one of these babies...... Ultima GTR.The ultimate track day warrior.A lot of owners opt for the Chevy Corvette powered LS lumps,on the basis that they are nigh on indestructable,and they are ripe for modding and extracting big power from them.I couldnt see any reason not to bung your Dodge lump in one of these.The Ultima still unofficially holds the record for the fastest lap around the Top Gear test track at Dunsfold.
  14. Does it have to be one dimensional.Cant include boating in general,not just military.People have other interests,other than military?.
  15. HaHa,and there is me just in front of you,slightly to your right.Mind you CW could have had the decency to point you out on the morning in question.
  16. All up weight about the same as a Warrior then.
  17. You have seen it at Firepower.
  18. I'm in there.Blue t-shirt,black base ball cap.
  19. Some nice bits of kit there.Like the G-Wagon,and the Leopard.The vehicle next to the Leopard?.Is it an up dated version of the Marder??.
