STILL IN USE

Several vehicles regularly attend various military rallies. Some of last year's trips were; Railway at War, at Buckfastleigh, the White Scout Car, MVT Victory Show, Kemble, again the White, MVT Exbury Show, the Morris C9B, which also went to the War & Peace Show at Beltring, Kent, the great Dorset Steam Fair, Ford LAAT, and the Willys MB went to Arnhem for the Market Garden Commemorations. The Seddon Atkinson transporter has helped, as I feel a very special reason is needed to drive some of these vehicles such distances.

One such special event is the Anniversary of the D Day Landings in Normandy.
We have attended with the Hippo or the Ford LAAT in 1984, '89, ' 94, and '99. In 2004 the Ford LAAT, with other vehicles from Devon, again joined the MVT Normandy Tour, covering something over 1000 miles.

The Dame went to Guernsey in 1985 for Liberation Day celebrations, and the Ford LAAT also went to Arnhem in September 1998.

The T54 went to the Paris Motor Show in 1997, and the Willys MB went to Arnhem in 2006, Norway May 2007, and to Arnhem again in September 2007.

Several vehicles have been used for film and TV work.
