Several of us have talked about getting a group of carriers together for W&P 2014. There have been a few there in the past but it'd be great to get a larger selection in one place, especially with peoples planned European trips. Last year was the straw that broke the camels back for me, fed up of being the bridesmaid and not having my own carrier there so I'm pushing hard to have the Scout ready (before W&P) to take along.
Shall we start a list of those who are planning to take a carrier along? Nothing set in stone but it might help encourage people like myself to get their a*se into gear and finish getting it ready....... It could be the most carriers of different versions together for quite a while. Here goes. Please add your name to the list. Ben- Scout MK 1L |

I am taking my mk1* in Sicily campaign colours complete with desert stowage
Hopefully.... The carrier is looking good to be complete but freight costs will be the clincher

Hi Gentleman,
Since I run the Arena at W & P and have a great deal of input into the programme ( I just wish people would relaise that anyone can bring a vehicle in for relevant "themes" ) I had been talking about this very thing with Shaun, Richie and Rick at the Buckenham show. Also I have told Rex that we will be having an Arena event on probably Sat & Sun at next years show - after all they are the most numerous armoured vehicle produced - and he was very enthusiastic about it ! I think that it would be wonderfule to get as many carriers as possible , to include Universal, Bren, T16, Lloyd Windsor etc. as I dont think its been done anywhere before. Andy |

If I can tie the transportation of mine in with others on the way down at a decent rate, my Mk1 desert cammo carrier will venture down again next year.
Am working on the haulage from Scotland, picking up others on the way down and doing return trip. Have 4 interested owners at the moment. Nigel

Thank you to all who have replied so far.
Andy, I remember the chat we had at Shaun's show, you're right, enough carriers will make a great display especially if we can have a bit of variety! So far then..... Scout MK 1's MK 2's Are there any owners of T16's, Loyd's able to attend? Are there any windsors in the UK that might be able to make it? Nigel, the shared transport sounds just the job, hopefully it'll be economically viable. I recon I'm furthest south, last on first off.......... Ben |
