Daimler Ferret Scout Car driving at Tanks For Everything Christchurch

[dogcamtrev]

Takes me back to some good days. I remember my mate Wally Hammond drove one of these that was FFR across the back park at Recklinghausen. He went through the water splash with the front hatch open, near on drowned himself and filled the Ferret up with water in about one second. We laughed and howled. Didn't have health and safety then...times were good.

I love these little guys! I wish there was a plastic model kit for them though.

is it a four seater?

@Phantasmos - Hi, normally it would carry 2 crew but it does also have 2 extra folding jump seats so it can be made into a 'cosy' 4 seater!. cheers Jonathan

This is a Mk1 Ferret with no turret, we also have a Mk1/2 which has the fixed turret on it.

Does this thing have the top part (turret) removed or is it a variant without it?
