It's not the full metal version just metal hull, but I'm definitely looking to upgrade

Hey Ryan welcome to the forum, there's a few of us dotted around South Wales but not a lot going on club wise, shame really as it would be good to get out and run the tanks about. Nearest club is Bristol armoured division ( BAD ) they won't be running at this time though due to the social distancing :thumbdown: I'm sure they'll be back up and running when they are permitted to though :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.

Just an update. BAD no longer exists as such. It has been rebranded as Wiltshire Armoured Division. It has its own Facebook page

Thank you for the update Richard, do you know if the meetings are going to be held at the same venue when the lockdown restrictions are relaxed and gatherings permitted ? :thumbup:

So far as I am aware, they will still meet at the Scout Hut in Corsham. I do not go any more.
