Well me being me I still had to have a try..rather than testing the water with a Banzai kit I chose to try it out with a Challenger..I managed after a little persuasion to the seller to get this one shipped to Poland for £280..I'm hoping Poland might just be a little slack compared to UK and they could miss it...

yup will do Simon :thumbup:

cheers Adam, yea I liked this version it has the rubber pads on tracks, much prefer those to the basic H/L metal ones, 360 turret too, yet to see about tax and duties, so can't say it's a worthwhile buy yet...

Good luck Jake! Hope it works out for you! All the taxes and fees you poor guys in the UK have seems just silly to me being an outsider.

JACK !!!
How dare you criticize British taxation ? :{
If a certain colony paid their taxes instead of throwing a valuable cargo into the harbour and in so doing injuring British seafarers, A cargo I should add upon which duty has still not been paid, :thumbdown:
And all this for the political self aggrandisement of a fellow named as George Washington and his cohorts all of them citizens of Good King George and his elected ministers (Elected by the citizens of England & Wales & Scotland that is), :shifty:
So why don't you demand from the usurper presently incumbent in what was once the Governors mansion in the district of Columbia that he comes up with the money he owes us and JAKE79 can afford to buy/sell his Tanks. ?
Shame on you. :haha: :haha:
Shaun.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

Methinks Mr Jack is busy encamping at The Valley Forge which is not for from his house, and waiting the next re-enactment of the decisive period of his nations development !!

I have spent a full day there and do believe the log cabins would still be pretty snug in the snow of an Eastern winter. No good for you British though, your beer would actually get cold & you wouldn't k ow how to cope :haha: :haha:

I never have understood why that Cornwallis bloke didn't send a squadron of MK 7 Cents up the valley, there wouldn't have been any arguement about whether they were going to pay their taxes then. :lolno:
Although all things considered they and the other Colonists havn't made a complete cock of the place, obviously we would have done much better as we have with all the other countries we have "Befriended" over the years !!!
I am not really a beer drinker but apparently publicans in the "Summer" get complaints that the stuff is too COLD !!!
I would happily settle for getting a summer :haha: :haha:

Kiaser It would depend where in the UK you were,
If you were in a Pub or Working mans Club in the North of the country you would stand a better chance of getting out alive if you asked for a pink paper parasol and a cherry on a stick in your pint than asking for "ICE" !!!
But the spoiled softies in the South would probably be surprised if there wasn't ice in the drink already complete with a twist of lemon, :haha: :haha:
Why do you think I drink "Shorts" ?
