Hi Gents
I was looking for some photographs of the Centurion 105 AVRE with the mine plough fitted.

I was in 31 Armoured during the eighties and thought the tank with the ploughs fitted looked like a complete beast. Combined with the fact that it was one of the last tanks that sounded like a tank when they were up and running they were fantastic.

A friend of mine has just purchased one (well a few months ago actually) and I was telling him of the AVRE's. I have looked on the net but I can't find one.

Melvin’s tank was used by the Swedish army I believe, but it is still in great condition. The engine was seized when he bought it but he has managed to free it off and the beast is up and running - a tremendous roar when he gives it some gas!

Any pics would be received with thanks.

Kind regards

Mick

Hi Dan,

Am I correct, 57 Australian dollars is about $47 USD? If so, those decals are going for more than the price of the model.....tell me I made a mistake.
thanks
