Default Stolly

Alvis Stalwart 6x6 Amphibian, Rolls Royce B81 6.5 straight 8 engine, winch, this one is fitted with the rare crane in the back and has it's swim boards (rare).
An absolute experience to drive and hear running, it sounds evil.
The first 2 axles stear, all 6 wheel drive (propperly 6x6) unfortunatley this means it can be a pig to drive on the road as you have to either jack it up every so often to let the wind up out or find soft ground, kerbs ect.
Will carry 5 tons and still float if you have the balls to swim one.
Fuel well let just say it loves it.

£6500 no vat

I LOVE these things.....

Can I ask why the hell have you got it???!!!

I assume you've been using it to tow a caravan (in reverse as well, by the look of it...)?

It's not mine, a friend has a museum for military stuff and gave a heads up as i was looking at one about 10 years ago.
The tow bracket on the front is original equipment, and handy if / when you get it stuck!

The sound track of that B81 is awesome forget miltek this this is on another level.

You know you want it Zip
