Take a look here...

It's the government disposals portal, and they've got this gem for sale. A little bit more interesting than the usual camo gear!
 
I'd buy it but it's about one metre too long for my garden pond. :D
 
I saw that on the BBC news.

Looks likely it will be used for scrap. I would have thought it would have made a good hotel or tourist attraction as a museum or something.

Maybe maintenance/harbour costs are too high.

lol.... :D I know it's a bit rough round here but even some of the brothers wouldn't think they need an armoured Range Rover...

'sides, me no like Range Rovers, they are the vehicular choice of villains and would-be gentry.

I DO like Land Rovers though, long wheel base preferred.

But I still think any 4 wheel drive ownership in an urban enviroment is totally nerdish.
 
I saw on the news the other day that H.M.S. Ark Royal has a future as a floating marine museum at one of the old docks here in London. One problem is the size of the docks gates,will it go through?
