terryb Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 they look to be a very early spec, and at 500,000 euro each, the upgrades alone will cost many times that. Are those early amx/strausslers in the shed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
79x100 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I've read the articles in the Belgian press and it seems that he bought them at more or less scrap / spare parts prices but will only sell them back if he has the contract to recommission them. There doesn't seem to be much talk of "upgrading", simply making roadworthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
