I was used to rob a bank. Just drove through the door and blasted the safe. |

It's a modified WW1 British Mark V tank. |

Or a replica thereof. |

The box like thing on the front was obviously added. In the movie it swings up to reveal a big gun. Also there are no gun ports on the side. -- Last edit: 2006-02-19 01:23:02 |

The running gear comes close to that of the Mark V*** (yes, three stars) which was designed and manufactured by the Metropolitan Carriage and Waggon Company. The side sponsons are of the flat type used for machine guns. Again the shape is wrong. This is just a modelmakers idea of a rhomboid tank. Especially this protruding box at the front would make the tank useless off road. We should classify it as 'Made for Movie'. |

It was based on a Centurion ARV, new photos and description of the work have emerged of the vehicle being built over on the HMVF. |
