Non-US Military Vehicles: Canadian Issue

[ColdWarCanada]

How about adding a Canadian Issue section to the Non-US Military area. I have a Bombardier Iltis 1/4 ton jeep that I would like to make some posts on. The Canadian Bombardier Iltis were manufactured in Canada during 1985/86 when Canada purchased the license from VW. There were about 2,200 vehicles made in Canada, and there are currently (best guess) about 400 licensed on the road in Canada.

Currently it is possible to import the German Iltis into the USA, as they are over 25 years old. I am sure when the Canadian Iltis is 25 years old, there will be considerable interest in this vehicle.

Cheers!

The Iltis is a great little vehicle. Very quick and fun to drive. I had an opportunity to drive one at Northwest Mogfest in 2006.

Let's see a section for other European military vehicles too! (British, French, etc.)

I love these Iltis! I am trying to get one off a friend, but may have to search for one from Germany. I think it's a great idea to have another forum for these. I want to learn everything I can about those amazing Europa Jeeps!

lol. Yeah it is your iltis that you sent to auction. The iltis that you could never sell.

Hope you put a reserve on it. Likely going cheap.
