After reading about Ian's exploits on Salisbury plain I was looking at the Bovington Tank museum website, and came across this site:
I want them all!

Oh, you slay me, Garry!
Jim - they're fantastic! I want one too. But here's a better idea -
you get one and chase me and Speedbike over the plain.

Funny thing about tank models
I have no interest in tanks and would never buy one
Once at an auction I won a bid but they were in lots of several models. In the lot was a Tamiya tank and tbh it was one of the most enjoyable model builds I ever did.
Perhaps because I was not blinded by small accuracy issues as in making airliners ,as I would not have know if it was wrong or not.
So without that handicap I just made it and enjoyed it....even to the extent I would like to do another build one day.
I was amazed at all the little bits it had on it....1/16 I think it was..nice size

I wonder if the main gun could be rigged up to take paintballs?

Paint CANS might be a better fit!
