Zero points on AFV recognition, Alex

The vehicle on left with sign saying "GM Fox"...........is in fact a Fox. The shocker on a Humber is much higher, look at the right hand pic, the petrol cans are in front of it.

Also note the front hubs on the Fox, definitely CMP based

Alex,

I knew there would have been a sound reason for the mistaken identity
