Headlights Mule/BV 206
Yes Robin, you have it absolutely right it is post and they will be removed before we show it this year. They are about as useful as a teat on a bull moose. They give off poor lighting and have a tendency to wobble as you drive and are a pain when working with the vehicle. Now your supercat has a little (very little) brother.
On another note, I saw a BV206 up for sale in Canada, it appears to be in very good condition but I find the price is quite high. The vehicle as shown in the photos appears to be an import and not original Cdn. In your opinion what could a good to very good condition BV206 sell for(approx)?? This guy wants over $60K. I was checking the web and saw some in the UK and the prtces seemed reasonable between 19K-24k British Pound. Your comment please.

Gilles,
when you take those lights off we would be interested in them if you can set them aside, trade or cash is fine. Sadly your Mule would have to be clased as a distant older cousin but not a brother, as the parentage is American and the Supacat is after all British. Re the BV206. We have a BV206 D6 which is the 6 cylinder Mecedes turbo diesel version. The CF ones are 5 cylinder diesels as far as I know. The vast majority of BVs are still the older Ford V6 gas version which just do not have the same power as ours. We paid around GBP 10,000 or less but we got it at a time when no one realised their utility. The engine fitment will decide the price, there are alot of D5 versions ex US service and European military but there are a bunch that have been re worked and other engines fitted, these ones are for sale at high prices as you state. A company in the US called Safety One charges ridiculous prices for reword machines. Why dont you post a link to the for sale site and I will go have a look. We will be coming past your door later this month or early February with ours going up to the other property. R

A BV206 will be the envy of the snowmobilers in Cantley and points north. As the locals would say, "'Ey, c'est quoi ca?" (or in English, Huh?) You'd better find a reason for running a BV. It is a tool that looks like a toy and is as useful as a backhoe to the right owner.

This is our BV206 for those who have not seen it.
From left to right, in a parade in Kingston, in the snow, snow bank jumping, in a parade in Kingston alongside a CVRT Spatan to give you a sense of scale. R

Nothing more fun than being dragged behind one of those on Bangy Boards with a dozen other guys. Even better is when the guy at the front of the rope falls and causes a chain reaction pile up
