Bo Bergmann Christensen MK 2/3 (VHF) 01DC76
Odense Denmark
My Ferret has lived most of its "life" in Germany with the Royal Engineers. Coming back from the first Gulf War it was sold to the Belgian Company 'SABIEX' along with 250 other Ferrets of different marks. 'SABIEX' thought they could fix the cars up a bit and sell them to Africa - but no one was interested. So the Ferrets stayed in Belgium stored outdoors from 1993 to 2003 when I bought mine (some are still there). It looked bad and the bins and mudguards were badly rusted, but the car was original and untouched and technically sound. It took me two years to restore it, working on and off.
I have restored it as it looked during service with 4 FD SQN RE, which is part of 7th Armoured Brigade - hence the dessert rat on the hull. 01DC76 is now "living" with me in the town of Odense in Denmark. There are about 5 Ferrets in the country all privately owned. The Ferret was only used by the Danish Army during UN - service on Cyprus. Ferrets were loaned to us by the British.
