    Does it make you feel at all apprehensive to know you have such a rare beast when you take her out for a drive? It's funny that you mention SAS Rogue Heroes, we have just started re watching that. It's great fun and a great story even on re-runs.

    The Jeep history is amazing when you think after serving in WW2 many were kept alive for years after and lived on farms and estates as workhorses 😁

    My mb jeep has a reg doc year of 42 but the frame no and tub no is 44 it was imported from Arizona ,no doubt they just bought the jeep with out a pink slip and mated it with an old 42 pink slip. I wanted a m201 but when looking to buy one my mb came up for sale
