Was there a glut of these around a while back (i.e. weren't they cheap?), when the MoD offloaded all the remaining GGs they had? Beginning to think I missed out on an opportunity there…

Rumour has it that the MOD still has a few of these.....
And they're unused.....
Along with some Series 1 Landrovers.....

I was told the other day how the MOD had loads of these, near to me, just in case london had a big fire....
all were unused.
because modern engines can come from surrounding towns, they were no longer needed and are no longer there.
not sure what happened to them
