Heres a few more, not scans but just used the camera on my iphone.

Hi Neil, it was indeed your link. Its great to see the old girl after so many years! Chris, I'm looking at the other pics now, all taken from different angles, with the CVR in various stages of driving over the cars! I was really excited to get this info to you as I know how valuable it is especially after all these years.

Hi Chris, I'm an ex QDG and I spotted a post on our facebook page regarding a Scimitar thread on this forum, 07 FD 04. This isn't just any old Scimitar, this was one of the vehicles in my Troop when I served in Wolfenbuttel in the early 90s, and whats more I have some pics of her in her original guise! This Scimitar was one of 4 in 2nd trp A Sqn, housed at Northampton barracks in Wolfenbuttel, I joined the Regiment in 87 and it was there then, right up to and after it was sent to the gulf. The only other vehicle I remember from our troop was 07 FD 97, which was my Scimitar. I've had a dig around and found a few pics of her, not in combat mode I should add, but providing the transport for 2 wives on red nose day in a spot of car crushing, I have about 30 pics of the event, but only 1 scanned in at the moment. I may have some other pics of her on exercise but I will have to have a good dig out. In those days many of the storage bins were "Home made and modified from anything that could be bolted to the turret, including ammo boxes, which can be seen in in the pic. I'll try and get some more scanned in when I get 5 mins and upload them for you. This was taken on red nose day 1990.
