    Hey all, Does the Saracen have an alturnator that functions in the same way as civilian vehicles? If so, anyone know what the ampage is? If I'm not mistaken, the Saracen is 24v negative earth. Is this 1 24v battery or two 12v batteries?

    My bad, didn't end up buying from Tanks a Lot but from Fantastic days. In my defense I thought they were the same company lol.

    Hey all, Need to transport a Saracen from Norwich to Limehouse in East London. Any ideas of who and roughly how much?
  7. Val
    East London, near Limehouse lol. Need a lowloader to get the Saracen down first.

    Well, I brought mine from Tanks a lot, and it's got a turrett but he said that he didn't have the cannon for it as it was a pain to move about with it on. One of the things that I overlooked when I was there I didn't look for any cannon mounts. But surely if he's in the business, he'll know the difference between a cannon and the browning gun?

    Acoustic wave cannon only it is

    To be honest, I don't have a clue. The big shooty the gun thing lol. Where can I buy from and they will be deactivated right? Don't wanna get in trouble with the law. http://www.sa-transport.co.za/military/army/saracen_armoured_car_ldp06.JPG[/img] The big cannon on that.

    Thanks Lee, The Saracen I brought, didn't come with a cannon though it has the turrett. Anyone know where I can get one?

    Got the Saracen now. Is restored and the engine rebuilt. The only work it needs is the accumulator charging and the fault finding on the indicator lights. Anyone know where I can get a workshop manual and drivers handbook/manual for it? Basically need to get it road legal by Sept 3rd.

    Hi everyone, I'm Sam, from London Have always admired military vehicles, especially Big Bertha and the Alvis Saracen. I've recently found out how cheap they are to buy. I always thought many £10,000s lol. So I'm in the position of looking to purchase a Saracen has a childhood dream. Great forum!

    Hi everyone, I'm new here, but thinking about purchasing a Saracen APC. Can someone answer the following questions for me? What type of license would I need? Who to insure it with? How do I charge an "accumulator"? How often would it need servicing? Anything else I should know? I'm new to MVs but have always dreamt about having one. Many thanks, Val
