Nice - the countryside looks superb - the commanding view from your positions is just what a unit would need. And it doesn't look like England in Winter (cos it's NOT!) It has a European feel to it because of the wide open expanse you were able to photograph.

Well done fellers and the hard work put in shows.

Its one of the trucks from the Valkyrie film . We brought it back from germany with us after the film .Its originally a Praga diesel truck , converted for the film , we had some open top and some hard top ones converted and of course one nice Funkwagen box body as seen close up in the film .
We bought this one as it was in the best condition it looks the part now as a mercedes
