Sandokan Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Long story short. Last week I was at Cartoomics, a comics and games fair in Milan. As usual, among other things, there were the guys of the Umbrella Corporation Italy club, linked with the Biohazard movies, putting up a show a few times a day with zombies on rampage, Umbrella's soldiers shooting around, terrified civilians on the run etc. Not a bad show, really. The thing which surprised me was that this year was added a real BTR60. I asked more info to a guy of the gang and he told me that it was bought in Poland last year and has the engine and a good deal of the electric stuff still in good enough shape. Well, obviously it was demilitarized. Italian legislation is rather strict about this things. I wonder how much can cost such a vehicle. More than a FIAT panda, I presume. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) The vehicle in your picture is a SKOT OT-64 APC, not a BTR. But if you do want a BTR-60, $17K will buy you a nice one: http://www.mortarinvestments.eu/products/armoured-vehicles-4/btr-60-8 Offers on a knackered example here: http://www.russianmilitary.co.uk/details.php?id=165 Edited March 26, 2018 by Sgt.Squarehead 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandokan Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 Yup! I stand corrected. Anyway, it isn't that expensive ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Umbrella still hasn't lost it's style, albeit this OT-64 is a bit too practical for them. I'm guessing the recession hit them hard -- no massive underground bases or laser fences. Did Wesker sit in the commander's position? (I've seen too many of those 'films', xD) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are interested, check „www.panzerkauf.de“. Looks like they have dozens of AFV‘s on stock. Unfortunately, they give you a price only on request. Keep us informed, when you made your choice... 😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandokan Posted April 6, 2018 Author Share Posted April 6, 2018 Ah, I presume you meant http://www.panzerverkauf.de/. A lot of cool stuff. Pity the only T-72 M has been sold already, it should be cheaper than the regular ones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyeyey, what a difference three tiny letters can make.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
