Looks like it was used as a parts donor!

Is the new owner likely to be able to get the bits to return it to a full compliment of doors, windscreen, etc?

That looks like they dug it up somewhere.  I'll bet it's not been run for ages.

Not quite sure, they do the same with any armoured landies as well, or just break them up before the sale.

EU demilitisation laws be the answer there.
