    Welcome back. VXB is a cool vehicle, but suffered from a bit of bad timing. If I recall correctly, it came out just before Saviem/Renault took over Berliet, and they already had their VAB to market, so they dumped the VXB. I hope you will forgive me taking the liberty, but here are your...

    Here is another interesting V100, this one from Venezuela. Looks like a late model (M706 PIP) with the Wegmann launchers and the fuel cap protectors. After you get over the shock of the white (!) hatch interiors, it is interesting to note the other local modifications- full width front vision...

    Yep, I have an extra. Stolly should get us there! I'm alive, but turns out the reason I felt crappy on the trip was because I had pneumonia. The cold/wet didn't help any (doh!). But, as the infamous Monty Python line goes "I'm getting better!". Cheers

    That's an interesting site, thanks. About half their vehicle ID's are wrong though! As in "yes, definitely a V100.." about the Dragoon...:razz: Cheers

    Cedric, funny you should mention "Freejack". The blue one in that movie is one of the V's being restored by an SS member. It has it's turret back now. The red one Mick Jagger rides around in has also been restored to its proper colours. It's a fun movie, especially if you like V100s. Cheers
