The offroad 4x4 bit towing sankey or Artillery Train

karloss:
Taken from website above,

Offroad 4x4
The 100 Long wheelbase and 90 short wheelbase landrovers are the transport backbone of all H.M. Armed forces. Apart from driving the vehicle over the combat course, participants will also complete a trials course towing a loaded ¾ ton Sankey Trailer Heavy Metal

Good to see they know what they are talking about. Not.

Good fun, although they dont mention the Saracen in the pic though
The fun thing was the multi wheel vehicles can do better than tracks sometimes depending on the driver. We had Stalwarts ammo carriers and Abbot Self Propelled guns in Germany, The abbot being a 432 Tracked personal carrier with an artillery turret on it.
The Stalwarts often had to pull the Abbots out of the crap

Spent about a year following a tracked command post around in a 101 ambulance, the only problem is when the driver of the tracks forgets not everybody has tracks. Then he had to come back and drag me out :wink:
