Wanted: G Wagon or is it G Wagen...whatever I want one!

I can think of no reason why they would not be released when the time comes. They are not US design, so CTAT or ITAR should not apply. Without the armour, controlled goods should not be involved (although technically a soft skin vehicle with blackout lighting is DCG controlled (ooops, looks like that is no longer the case)), the only question is if they meet North American safety, emissions, and crash standards.

Well there certainly are enough civilian ones cramming Vancouver streets, though not sure how differently they may be constructed. I sure like the ones with the C6 and the modified M113 cupola clamshells and gun shield...I have a spare M1114 hmmwv gun turret setup that I thought I could mount on one. As Rob said I am sure they will be stripped of any parts like that

I see them all the time up around Borden and had a good look at one at the air show there this summer. I have 2 Land Rover Discovery's that I would gladly trade for one, but doubt that would get me close. Anyone know what years the older ones (likely to be released first) would be? I would think DOD must have paid heavy for these, the civvy ones driving around Vancouver are into 6 figures new and they aren't that much different.

The CF lists the CFR year as 2004 although 2006 seems to be the last year that any were registered.

I came across this from about a year ago;

I remember that. There may have been more than one for sale at that time, but they were recalled and the bidding closed. The vehicles were not sold.

I remember that as well, I think the buyer was after Rob Love for some parts if I recall, prior to the deal being squashed
