HISTORY of German Leopard or Leopard 1 or Snow Leopard Tank:
The Leopard is a German designed and produced main battle tank that first entered service in 1965 and was used as the main battle tank for Germany, several other European countries, Australia, Canada, Brazil and Chile. It is a fairly conventional design armed with a German-built version of the British L7 105-mm gun and known for its good cross-country speed.

The design started as a collaborative project between Germany and France in the 1950s, but the partnership ended and the final design was ordered by the Bundeswehr, production starting in 1965. In total 6485 vehicles have been built, of which 4744 battle tanks and 1741 utility vehicle and anti-aircraft variants, not including eighty prototypes and preseries vehicles. Since 1990, the Leopard 1 has gradually been relegated to secondary roles in most armies.

Hi folks,

How about this for an unrealistic price!?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1-16-GERMAN-KING-TIGER-TANK-FORCES-OF-VALOR-LTD-EDITION_W0QQitemZ300287763866QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN?hash=item300287763866&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1298|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318

Flippin' eck, mine cost £180 p+p included!! Perhaps I should try and sell it? Part-converted to R/C (I've stripped it and put bearings in the wheels!!!!)
;D
