Thanks for posting it.
I like 'Buttercup' for the name. Maybe paint it yellow though.

With my 9 foot tall 712W I tell people that sometimes I notice when I back over a Toyota; with the Marauder I might not notice if I backed over my Pinz!
Damn, wish I was a rich urbanite...

If you don't want to spend the 300K for that vehicle you can always get one of these..
I have one and it is pretty cool.

If we had the budgets that the military has (no country in particular) we would probably all have something like this.

Re: Upgrade from the Pinzgauer?
I looked at a BRDM. You can look for them on You Tube. Amphibious also, sort of like a smaller Alvis...
Cool but it would have cost me a small fortune to import it..

Re: Upgrade from the Pinzgauer?
A ferret is a nice armoured car, but as a daily driver? the upside down steering wheel? and the Wilson pre-select box? not my ideal? I have driven one back in the day when I wore the uniform?.....and gas mileage? Rolls Royce B60 scary MPG a lot worse than a petrol Pinz.....but who am I to talk, I,m trying to sell my Unimog to fund the purchase of a new Belarus 820 Tractor!!!!!!! some would conside that action to be stark raving mad!!!!!!!!! No!!!! the only upgrade from a Pinz is a Big 8 Wheel Tatra.....at least it will all be familiar when you look underneath????
Aiming to introduce UK Politicians to Piano wire and Lamposts!
Re: Upgrade from the Pinzgauer?
Did he say 70 miles per hour? I wonder what the range is on that thing? I like, but I'm about $298K short right now.
