Not a centurion, what is it?

Default Want one

I wish I could find a complete and restorable Chieftain tank in a paddock here!

I remember drooling over Tim Vibert's mint Chieftain years ago when I went to select my (clapped out by comparison) Centurion from his vast paddock full. All gone now though.

When he started the Chieftain I fell in love on the spot...

Cheers

Phill
