besides I have a Cromwell ARV to drive for the event.
No heavy steel tracks allowed last time, is that likely to change for the next? Or will it just be offroad?

Excellent! I can't wait.

I still have fond memories of the 2014 event....Watching the tanks startup in the morning on a middle of a Valkenswaard shopping street was a sight to see!
Also quite unique was that several vehicles were repainted and appropriately marked just for this event.

We are coming to the 2019 D-Day and buying a vehicle "of some sort" in Europe. Unfortunately we will be on another project in September.

If anyone wants to do Market Garden and not Normandy get in touch with me and we may be able to work out a type that suits us both. I will buy it, get Green Card, Registration etc and the new owner can take it over drive away and then sell or ship it home if a non-Euro resident (I suppose all British will be non-Euro residents by then!)

Probably... and will be banned from taking Military Vehicles to France without completing 12 months of complex paperwork to the French Police, Customs, Department of the interior etc... exactly what will be unclear until after Brexit has happened.

Perhaps I should buy a Jeep in France now while there is still time!
