Point taken.... devices need to be placed so as not to splatter ones own belongings or those of others nearby. My ex SAS friend Ivor Brownsword has tought me well about such equipment and its placement.

Mr Piggy and Catchpole, can we please keep this discussion relatively on-topic? This thread is heading for the 100 page mark and has mostly remained on topic - it'd be great to see it surpass that without too much deviation... (and I use the word deliberately, given where your latest exchanges appear to be going!!)  ;D

Back on topic then, I actually saw the green machine on M B this year, when I thought it was a figment of everybodys imagination !!

I also saw the green machine on MB this year, but the figure on the front in a green costume somewhat burned my eyes.  :-X

This film should be played at high volume, so don't come complaining about it! And who the hell is Steve?

You could try Centreville in Newcastle upon Tyne. They always have good D's, 2cv's, GS's etc. in for sale, they might be able to point you in the right direction. They are just down the road- if they have anything I could pop down and check it out for you to save on a wasted journey.
 I'll dig out their number and web address tonight and PM you in the morning.

Ebay?

PS Peter, there's quite a large following for the H Camionette as it's known in France. There are plenty available, I dare say the military still have some locked up somewhere.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

'pends where in France you buy one, and how much loot you stuff it with.

55 mph might be all you get on a good day.
