Default Bren Carrier for sale on Milweb

This carrier which seems to fearture components from different marks of vehicle and various repro parts is currently for sale on Milweb.

http://www.milweb.net/classifieds/la...ad=47215&cat=1

If the owner gets the 45000 euro he is asking it will be a new world record for a carrier.

If the price is 4500 euro someone is going to have a very good deal.

I think he probably does mean 45000 euro and with the shortage of good carriers someone silly may pay it.

Hi Neil and others. This is my first time on here! I have been following some of the threads lately. Especialy the derilict carrier coming from Canada. I'll follow that with interest. As Neil and Nigel know. I have owned a MK2 Canadian carrier for a good few years now. I have prepared it in Welsh Guard stowage, and it's marked up in 43rd Wessex.

T14717 would make it a Car, Scout MkI ! It is sort of!! T14017 makes it a Sentinel Wagon built UC MkI (or MkII as Contract changed over to MkII at some stage in production).
