The 4x4 derivative is the MK, as used for years by the British Army (obviously strengthened & built to their specification)

later version of the TK was the TL  with tilt cabthink they made 4x4 versions
used to work on Tk's the cabs didnt tilt just small access flaps behind the doors

New version was calle dthe TM I think.

The old MK's were awexome... huge tyres and 4x4... went anywhere! Just as well really, we had a COMCEN with about 25 of the [!Expletive Deleted!] and had to park it in the middle of German woods, udually on top of ridges and mountains!

Seen a few go over as well. Was in one when it jumped out of gear on the way down a steep track in a wood with a hairpin coming up.

Gearstick broke the drivers elbow (?) and I ended up having to try and get it back in gear...  :shock:   :(scared):  (Think we really need a brown trouser smilie!)
