Ah well - happy days - good memories - I wonder who will appear with it next year?

Doh! 15 October 2009. Shows how much interest we have doesn't it?

[Martin Webster]

I hope they stay in the UK, would be a shame to lose them.

I think (only a hunch) that the StuG may have gone to Spain...... or may have been bought by Spanish members of a UK group in which case it may stay here to be used by them.

I would think the Tiger will go Stateside........

[JDR]

yeah saw it on milweb the other week was suprised when no one mentioned it on the forums.

[Jaws]

A shame to let it go... selling in the middle of a recession... maybe I should save up, buy a old T34 then dress it up as a king tiger?

It would be a bugger to tow on the back of my mondeo...

Or maybe not.

Regards,

Gary.

Hmm interesting post Her Grink .I shall watch with interest.

[nelz]

. Would be nice if it stayed on these shores....... with a more informed and passionate owner.

What about you SBG guys....... all chip in a buy it between yers!!??

I heard on the jungle drums about 50k is the asking price ! ...not worth that much in my opinion.

For that money , buy a new doner T55, around 28/33K and send to me,... I will fab the top for 10k

save yourselves 10k..

[Hans Gowert]

Waste of a T55 IMHO. I first saw and climbed all over a T55 in 1979 and I wasn't impressed then but with a Tigger top who knows. The Tiger did cut an 'oooo' from the crowd though and it was fun to pyro up.

Quite John - ghastly pile of scrap!

Crumbs - just realised if the Tiger go's away what is Dr No going to crash into the water barrel next year!!

Haha

got to agree, the Tiger in question has had it's day I suppose,.... needs a lot of tlc to get it up to a decent replica again, and the duck pond feature in the bottom of the hull definately needs removing,... more like a rusty bat cave then an replica internal.

[les hearn]

i got to agree too
maybe it is now like the good old swedish jackets ....fased out
