fv1609 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Those vehicles are all very well but can they claim a service life of 40 years? The prize winner surely has to be the Humber 1-Ton FV1600 Series. The chassis & engines built in 1953 & continued in service until April 1993. Looking pretty h*rny I think after all this time! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/fv1620/PigtshirtR.jpg[/img] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Hardyferret Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 For me its 'even stevens' between the Pig & the Ferret. Both are cool - ideal everyday runabouts, perfect for a bit of shopping in town as down here in Dorset when the sun comes out so do the grockles, so all that armour makes it so much easier to find/make a suitable parking space :whistle: :naughty: Then when parked up with all you precious bits and peices inside no nasty lilttle tea leaf is able to smash a window and make off with any of it :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Looks like the Truck, Humber 1-Ton, Armoured wins. Sugga is a car & I hate to say it so is a Ferret, albeit with rather unusual embellishments ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the oldest Pig in the world FV1609, but the most expensive Humber is entered in the armour section (£90 million for 24 vehicles in 1963) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
