Tiger 131 Day - The Tank Museum - 31st March

Post by Armortek »

We have been asked by the Tank Museum to attend the following event. The plan in to have a display of mostly Tiger 1's and a few King Tigers to tie in with the theme of the day.

I appreiciate it is rather short notice, however if you have one of these models and would like to join us, we have a few places remaining. We have been promised packed lunches and of course an entry pass for the day.

If you are interested please contact me directly for further details.

A great day out at the Tank Museum once again :D

Tiger 131 proved herself a diva by blowing her electrics whilst reversing out of the museum, plonking herself directly in the path of the rest of the cavalcade :roll:

Not only did the Tank Museum staff manage to get the rest of the convoy around her, the boys in black also managed to get her running again and she made her appearance at the end of the show - adding to the drama for the assembled masses but probably taking a few years off the life expectancy of David Willey, who was not only co-ordinating everything but also doing the commentating.

Good to see so many Armortek owners and Tigers at the museum, and to catch up with the usual suspects. No Centurion prototype on show though :lol: :lol:

We had an excellent day at the The Museum yesterday and thank you very much to all the customers who came along to support us. An excellent display in the arena including many tanks now in the Armortek collection, with of course Tiger 131 the star of the day, although as Adrian said she caused a few grey hairs to appear before finally making her entrance! I did take a video which I will try to get on line, although I am sure they will be some professional ones published soon.

I have posted more pictures to facebook, follow this link (you do not need a facebook account to view)

Picture courtesy of Sven Strobbe, taken last Saturday at the Tank Museum, we had a really good turnout of Armortek customers, some unfortunatley were missing from the photo.
