Lee, go to the top of the class.

This is the Centurion belonging to one of our shooting club members.  This is inside the engine bay which houses a Roll-Royce Meteor engine (which I believe is similar to the Merlin engine used in the Spitfire).

It is an awesome piece of kit and sounds like a Tank rather than those weird "surround sound" exhausts that are on the Chieftain (not sure what is on the Challenger).  We had the Centurion in our Armoured Engineer unit in Germany, and this and the Stalwart sounded superb.

If I can get some more pictures of the beast in all its glory I will do - but when this was taken it was workshop as Melvin was working on the clutch.

I am away for a couple of weeks now (oohhh looking forward to the sun) so I will check the post when I get back

Regards

Mick
