We found our S1 was an officers car for the Kent yeomanry. They lost all the photos in a fire but did send some original door stickers

Was the anti mine variant first developed for use in Beruit? Or was it the other way round NI then Lebanon?

That has seen some service then. Great to know the history of a vehicle.

I wish I had more info on mine. All I know is that it was with the field engineers, so probably NI.
