I remember in the early noughties (hate that expression!) seeing if l could replicate the figures on road that l managed to get on the dyno, 160+mph. I decided to do this on the way to Bovington TANK museum where l could look at TANKS all day. The TANKS were looking fine, even though the TANKS were static that day, not a TANK open day you see. That was the day l realised the benefit of wearing a small ruck sack as a 'spoiler'.
There, that's redressed the balance re mention of tanks. Did l succeed. Of course not, how could l with a 70mph limit? Honest officer, not a single mph over 70 )

Returning slightly to the novelty angle of the thread, here's a brace of ideas for Oddball (see- a Tank ref ) gifts, or for imbibing in time-honoured tacky Christmas style: and, of course, the electric gun-shaped opener:
