Fred vanSickle of Collector's Source in Acton, Ontario imported several Ferrets about 25 years ago.
He was selling them for $12,000.00.
I rolled into his driveway one day in order to pick up a Bren gun tripod and there was Fred just finishing kitting up a Ferret with on-board tools etc.
He said he was glad that I was there and that now we could go for a spin with me acting as crew commander.
The Ferret had a Plessey C42 set with intercom so we were exercising due diligence WRT to road safety.
For about half an hour we tooled in and about the town of Acton, Fred driving and me "up top" with my arm casually draped over a .30 cal MG.
Great experience!
