[caza111111111]

[NikilisNY]

i was gonna comment on how its not halo but i think its more fun think about what the person in the blue car was thinking......"HOLLY FUCK MOM THERES A TANK BEHIND US HIT THE GAS. BUT THE LIGHTS STILL RED. FUCK THE LIGHT DRIVE" lol

[rowanmark21]

I would love one.Heavy on the juice I guess.What's the insurance like?

[NikilisNY]

@rowanmark21 would u need insurance with that thing? lol

[rowanmark21]

@NikilisNY Hallo there, I guess everyone else would!

[chinchillawrangler]

england looks like a shitty place to live

[rowanmark21]

@chinchillawrangler Where do you come from,have you ever lived there?I have it's farely shitty in places and sublimely,wonderfully beautiful in others.Where do you come from?Anyway home is where the heart is,where our ancesters battled the land and all comers ,where our extended families are.NOW THERE IS A GLIMMER OF HOPE.NOW WE KNOW WE ARE ALL FROM THE SAME EXTENDED FAMILY.oh my head.

[chinchillawrangler]

@rowanmark21 i cant really be talking cause im from alaska; the shit hole of the US. but id think it would make more sense when you guys were into taking over countries you shouldve gotten one that gets more sunlight and i bigger than the state of ohio

[Czechsix]

Ack, lose the music. Great video, brings back some great memories of driving one around!

[dutchforces]

Hey there, lovely vid!! Where can you buy some like this ? and whats the pricetag ?

greetz from Holland

[ndarby61]

@dutchforces I believe when the vehicles are de-commissioned they were sold or auctioned by the Milartary of Defense. (this may not happen any more). This was was built from two originals. (It's not mine btw)

[IVANGROZNEY]

Like the tank, hate the music. I heard you Brits could drive privately owner disarmed tanks on public roadways. I thought you had to paint them bright colors.

[An0niempje]

@IVANGROZNEY You mean like pink? Is that more your color?

Anyway, beautiful thing, this tank. Where did you buy it?

[IVANGROZNEY]

@An0niempje I've seen them painted yellow on history channel programs. They are supposed to have rubber pads on the tracks to keep from wreaking the roads. You know the tank collectors in that states a jelous. They have to keep thiers on private lands.

[An0niempje]

@IVANGROZNEY Lol, as if it isn't logical you aren't allowed to drive your own tank on the road xD.

Anyway, I don't think that any color could make this thing more awesome. Except when you painted it yellow with black stripes to resemble a bee or something.

[IVANGROZNEY]

@An0niempje Black and yellow industial stripes would be awesome. I think they make them keep thier tanks off the road here for the safety of other motorists. There are enough pea brains trying to asert right of way by weight. You should see how some of these goofballs drive when they have a plow on a truck that they don't own.

[An0niempje]

@IVANGROZNEY Yes, ofc it's for the safety of others. You will be quite safe inside that tank I guess, but others that crash into you...

[ndarby61]

@IVANGROZNEY as far as I'm aware not special colouring is required once these vehicles are released from service and into the public domain.

[bradmatford]

That is not the scorpion tank I was thinking of. I was thinking of the halo scorpion tank.

[Zeamus634]

What must he be thinking when the tank rolled up behind him. lol

[sibriidio]

look out mate, ya're driving on the wrong side of the road... does this baby have a diesel engine or Jaguar 4.2 petrol engine?

[ndarby61]

orig jag 4.2 engine

[sibriidio]

wow

[drifter9398]

@sibriidio WTF do you fancy that tank or somthin callin baby. ya goin to take it unda the sheets lol.

[tiff5355]

nice 1 m8

[Barrairo]

is that homemade or did u buy it?

[ndarby61]

Bought, restored and maintained by brother-in-law.

[carlube79]

RC ?

[ndarby61]

What is RC ?

[95predator]

radio controlled ;)

but i suppose its a real tank

[ndarby61]

most definately :)

[95predator]

for sure its a real tank youve got to be really blind not to see that^^

[ndarby61]

nice one !

[chrthiel]

Does it have the original Jaguar 4.2 litre petrol engine or the newer Cummins BTA 5.9 litre diesel engine?

[ndarby61]

jaguar engine.

[chrthiel]

Ouch, that can't be good for his (The owner) fuel economy.

But then again, who am I to talk, seeing how I'm trying to buy one of the army's old M113s.

[redrouge987]

Haha, bet that car at 1:45 was shittin' it!

[ndarby61]

Pretty much kackin' myself....thought we were going to ram it !!!

[chrthiel]

There's something undeniably awesome about that whole family of vehicles.

[ndarby61]

some bill as well !!! 420 litres ! (good hit on the clubcard points though)

[ndarby61]

No insurance group specified I'm told....just goes on value of vehicle. Normal road tax.....and it fits in a McDonalds Drive-Thru !!!!!

[chrthiel]

I would love to see the face of the register clerk when you figured that out. :D

[DanVielwerth]

Is this a private vehicle? If so, how much? I want one.

[ndarby61]

think it worked out about £9000....although I'm not the owner !

[86Cado]

that thing is to danm small and the armor is to thin but it is the fastes tank in the world:o

[beastatlay]

It's a recce tank - it's SUPPOSED to be small, ya fuckin' fanny! And the armour is more than thick enough for what it does, it's not designed to slug it out like in some flag-wavy Hollywood film. If the armour was thicker and heavier, it wouldn't be the fastest tank in the world, would it? Fuckwit Yanks, give me strength...

[weswilliam]

at first i was like man that tank is fat but it was bieng fasfawarded lol

[ndarby61]

no fastfawarding here, dudeeeeeeeeeeee !

[richarddr1234]

The Philippines has a lot of these tanks. Theyre practically the only tanks suitable there.

[guitarazn90210]

same with indonesia

[richarddr1234]

Cool. Given they're right next to each other and all.
