I got this Mk2 no2* in 1998. it had been used a tractor, the front armour had been cut away as well as a large hole being cut in the rear armoour so the driver could look out the back. it had a total strip/ blast and repair as per usual. the floor and track guards had some major holes to repair as well. The front armour i fitted on this carrier was off the first carrier in the "carrier grave yard" thread. I still have this carrier and it is going strong doing about 500 miles a year on the road if not more. Its first run out was to Dunkirk in 2000 following a 6 mile raod test. we did 250 miles that week driving around France and Belgium. its done Eindhoven to Arnhem in 2004 and Arnhem in 2009 . just keep an eye out for Puddle Jumper !
