Hello fellow members, I just joined this Forum and would like to introduce myself. My name is Marc van Aalderen and I live in the Netherlands. I have a modest collection of MV's with emphasis on British and Commonwealth. At this time I own a Daimler Dingo Mk1B 1941, Daimler Ferret Mk1/1 1959, UC No2Mk2* 1944, Ford GPW 1944 (original Market Garden British Airborne jeep) with Airborne trailer by SS Cars Ltd, and several Dutch Army Daf trucks for transporting the other MV's. My favorites are the Dingo and UC. On my wish list are a Daimler Armoured Car and a Ford CMP truck. I hope to learn more of MV's by joining this Forum. Thank you.

Default welcome marc, from UK

Nice selection of vehicles you have there marc.
Maybe I better hide my F60 LAAT a bit better or maybe you will be popping north to try and buy it, my wife keeps threatening to put the Truck on Ebay and buy a vintage car she can actually get into.
Nice to see so many different vehicles in your care.

Default Hi

Hello Mark,

You are now in good company.

I too have a carrier and a Ferret (or two) and I used to own the Daimler Dingo now at my old regimen't Museum 1/15th Royal New South Wales Lancers in Parramatta (Sydney)

Cheers

Phill
