Hi Henk. In regards to the differences between the Dutch and Aus PMV there is a few. Externally the big one is the add-on armour. Also there is an additional sheet metal cover on the roof. Not sure what that was for but it may have been ECM related (not going there). The antennas and AMU are different because of the different comms suite. They don't tend to use the spare wheel cover on the back either. Inside the first thing we noticed was that the water tank is not fitted and the filler cap is blanked over and the pump not fitted. The comms as mentioned are different including the harness. Plus they didn't have the spoil liners inside. That's about all that I can remember from seeing them in the Ghan. Oh and the big one was your guys could do what most crewman do to their vehicles and modify as need be such as installing a fridge by redirecting the cold air from the AC. We on the other hand aren't even allowed to bolt a drink holder in. One last thing was the Dutch soldiers I spoke to said they didn't have Command Vehicle Variants

Hi Jason. I found a couple of photos of crews in a typical position. Don't have to many due to secret squirrels. Cheers, John

Will there be a UK distributor or will be it only available via international sellers?

Hi Ed. John will reply. He has been getting a lot of pre-order requests so it takes him a while to answer back to everyone. But he does reply. He sent me a reply about a week after I placed my order. Cheers, John
