It really is a superb replica,I think I have seen it in another clip in a reenactment at an airshow.As far as I know this must be the only working replica in the world.I certainly don't know of any other,there are,I think two working originals at Bovington tank museum.On their tank days they run one around their arena.Come to think of it there was another replica used in "Indiana Jones and the last crusade" whether that's still around I dont know.No a cheap thing to build properly.
@silver760 looking at bovington site it appears there are two working originals as you say, although they dont make it easy to see what tanks they have that work. the ww1 runners are a mk v male and a mk iv male. with any luck they will be given a run at tankfest this year which ill be dragging the missus to. hhe.
@whitedragon1204 the structure is metal, the walls are plywoord, tracks (which do the squeaking, and if you dont belive me go to the nearest roadworks and listen when a digger moves) are metal, so are all the engine components annd wheels etc
my favorite tank from the war

Wow, he could have stood on the platform up the whole time, but that would mean he would be smarter than he obviously is.

that cameraman should have moved his ass long before, don't know why he was just hanging around, not even filming it just before he nearly got hit.

I don't give a crap about the cameraman, I only care about the tank. Good to see a running example of this tank, even if it is a replica.

Beautiful to see and hear one of these - even though only a reproduction. And it's a lovely reproduction too.

'Almost runs over cameraman'? It was so slow it couldn't touch him, let alone run over him (unless he was unwary that the thing was behind him)!
