Thanks for posting them! A nice sunny day at Bovington
I thought the engine was a real refurbished Tiger one - but I could be wrong...

In fact - from the website:

The last step in this long and fascinating process
is the installation of the impressive
Maybach HL230P30 V-12
petrol engine.

Here Ron is putting the final touches
to the big power unit.

Those who have followed the story right through
will recall that this engine came from
the Tank Museum's Tiger II
and in reality would be more applicable
to late production Tiger I tanks.

so there !!

Very interesting reading if you follow through the links...

I watched a video of that tiger being drove around at that bovington thing. The tiger had a LOT of popping noises coming the engine... and definitely detracted from the "scariness" of a tiger.

I wish they could get it up to par...

They had to use different air-filters - hence the popping... ah well I dunno!!

Awesome footage, Akula! I would have killed to be there.. Have you got any other vids or photos of the exhibition? And yeah, that Matilda seems to move many times faster than in FH.
