Bedford TM, or Scania???

I'd have either. Perfectly happy with a 'Hobbit' or the Pinzgauer.

Why 'Hobbit'??

Well it's a Haflinger (named after an Austrian mountain Pony) & Hobbits were 'Halflings', so it's practically the same :roll:

It went like stink and very east to drive on road and cross country.
The one I drove had a nice de-mountable Warn winch on it. :D

They used to have 101s before and were useless at towing

As the HMT was a new demo vehicle, only the Pinz's were let into the dunes, about 30 minutes later they walk back, both stuck, so they the HMT drove the the nearest Pinz, drove around it 3 or 4 times to prove the point, then pulled them out.
There is now 80 or more being built, most proberbly finished by now, and in service.
Great suspension design, with central air bag linked to wheels in formula style, so a the touch off a button, it will lower to the ground, or raise up 600 mm or so, wish my landy did that. :roll:
