Thanks for the update, Jordan. That workshop looks fabulous and it looks you will be cracking down on that Otter next.

Checking out the mileage on the speedometer seems to show 13,719.8 miles.I didn’t think it would be this high but then again they did sever with the Dutch forces for a close to 30years after the war. My thoughts are the Dutch drove it the most.
Nice find, indeed the Otters were the longest serving CMPs with the Dutch Armed Forces.
