At US$3.4 million, the Lykan HyperSport is the third most expensive vehicle built to date. W Motors plan to produce only seven units of the car.
2016 Ford Mustang 5.0 GT
It says everything about Silverstone when the best off-circuit display at the British Grand Prix is put on by the local constabulary.
Amongst a fleet of vehicles parked up alongside the old start/finish straight was this stunning Ford Mustang demonstrator vehicle that is currently on loan to Northamptonshire Police.
This was my personal favourite of the trio of cars on show.
The Mustang probably has a reasonable chance of being incorporated into UK police forces, unlike the BMW i8 that was also on show (see photostream).

One of Cambridgeshire Police's very smart Hyundai i30 IRV's seen leaving Thorpe Wood Police Station.
This vehicle then turned round along with a Station Van and C.I.D car and came back and performed a rather OTT roadside stop (blue & twos the lot!!) Apparently I was causing a serious security alert!

Interesting one, this vehicle, AE60GRX the MAN with Egyptian manufactured MCV Evolution bodywork was meant to be in service in London. The rest of the batch were delivered and are in service in London but unlike the others in this batch of buses this vehicle was fitted with a Voith gear system, not a ZF which is more standard, with virtually no mileage on the clock, and having never turned a wheel in public service it was rejected and is now at Procters, this picture was taken days after arrival, still in its as delivered livery.
I finally came to the decision that I needed to change my Sherman. The 9 wide Sherman is surprisingly different in look than my previous 8 wide tank. I say this because for some reason I believe it is too big, yet at the same time I think I'm finally on the path to making this perfect.
Unfortunately, Lego doesn't have or make cheese slopes that angle in two different directions. So for the time being, there is an open stud area. I am thinking of modifying a cheese slope to place in those two areas.

Class 128 single car parcels DMU W55992 approaches Reading on the Down Relief, 2nd August 1977.
Unit History
Introduced in 1959, ten vehicles were built by the Gloucester Railway Carriage and Wagon Company, each with two 230 hp Leyland Albion engines. This made them very powerful for a 41 ton single car vehicle. The class was built specifically for parcels traffic, and did not feature any passenger accommodation. They had a payload of 10 tons, and could haul a tail load of up to 64 tons. The six vehicles for Western Region duties (W55991 – W55996) were fitted with the standard DMU gangways at each end, while the four London Midland Region vehicles (M55987 – M55990) were non-gangwayed. Initial allocations saw the London Midland Region vehicles allocated to Newton Heath for northwest services and the Western Region vehicles were spread between the London area (W55991/2), Tyseley (W55993/4) for Midlands services and Chester (W55995/6). Boundary changes in the mid 1960’s saw Chester and Tyseley become part of the LMR. W55992 was withdrawn in November 1990 and broken up in April 1991.
Praktica LTL, Kodachrome 64
The forest that lies at the edge of the South Eastern border of Tarakia is unlike any other terrain in the entire county, it's soft, well watered, and more than capable of engulfing any vehicle well past the half way line in certain areas. The vast expanse of the Tarakian desert is capable of supporting heavy armour, and the mountainous regions that guard the North and South are solid enough to support any amount of weight, meaning that these areas can be filled with large formations of armour from many different classes. The forest region doesn't have the capability to support anything larger than a medium tank in most areas, and this has been a blessing, because it means that the enemy can't use heavy armour either. Given the very few realistic avenues of attack against Tarakia, an enemy would be forced to take one of four choices, and for some time now, many have seen the forest region as the weakest of the four, due to the inability to field heavy armour. The forest borders Tarakia, and on the other side, two other nations, who both field very few heavy tanks, instead preferring medium tanks, but any unified force intent on attacking Tarakia would have to go through one, or both of these two nations, meaning that just because the adjacent nations don't have many heavy tanks, heavy tanks passing through the forest isn't entirely impossible.
All previous attempts to use heavy armour in this region have resulted in hushed up failure, due to the building style of the Tarakian armoured forces, which favours heavily armoured tanks with powerful weaponry, at the cost of agility, this ended up with an alarmingly high number of tanks getting stuck, which meant that tanks could only operate in a limited number of locations in the forest. With the general feeling that if an attack were to happen, it would happen in this region, calls for a heavy tank that could be used in all areas of the forest were laid down. However, some thing's don't change, and the die hard established few in the Tarakian military dictated that any new heavy tank design must still meet the required protection and firepower standards of any Tarakian heavy tank, which gave the designers quite a headache. Having to design a tank with enough armour that caused previous tanks to sink, but some how light enough not to sink, with the same level of protection. Quickly realising that they wouldn't be able to get away with a conventional Tarakian tank design, and that the only way to achieve the level of protection needed, was to use thinner armour, but to slope it so heavily that it's effectively the same level of protection. After a great deal of testing, it was found that even with as much sloping as physically possible, the new tank came in at a fully loaded weight of almost 70 tonnes, which is still much lighter than units such as the Marauder or the Dragoon. To counter the weight of the unit, the designers gave it a longer hull, and wider tracks to dissipate the weight over a greater area.
The end result of a great deal of work and even more testing, is the Ares MkII heavy tank, which is much smaller, and has a much lower profile than all previous Tarakian heavy tank designs. The low profile will allow the tank to remain concealed in pre-built, armoured firing positions, which allow the hull to be completely hidden, while only the turret is exposed. Almost every aspect of the Ares is completely new, including the shape and design of the hull, the entire running gear, the suspension, the engine and transmission, the entire turret and turret basket design, and the ammunition storage. A new feature unique to the Ares is a 130mm cannon, which can fire a myriad of shell types, but as of now, it carries a high explosive, and an armour piercing round, which can penetrate any known enemy tank. With a completely new hull design, which is smaller than previous heavy tanks, the room inside was limited, so a new engine had to be designed that could provide enough power for a tank of 70 tonnes, but small enough to fit into a redesigned and much smaller than normal hull. As usual, the clever folks at the Tarakian R&D department delivered an engine capable of delivering 1420bhp, with above average fuel consumption. However, all this goodness does come at a cost, because this engine produces a lot of heat, which requires the rear portion of the tank to be fitted out with multiple cooling vents, and two large cooling fans. Due to the limited space inside the tank, the internal fuel tank is smaller than the designers would have liked, so six auxiliary fuel tanks were added to the exterior of the tank. Each tank has it's own full pump and cut off valve, meaning that even if they're damaged, or sabotaged, they can never harm the internals of the tank. Making up almost 50% of the tanks fuel supply, it was deemed these to be quite important, so each tank is rolled from 30mm steel plates, to stop them from being easily holed by small arms fire, excluding things like 50. cal weapons. 20 shells can be removed from the middle of the tank, and a second internal tank can be added.
The Ares MkII is crewed by five men, including a commander, gunner, loader, driver, and a navigator who doubles as a radioman. Carrying 63 rounds, which are located in several places around the tank, the rate of fire can be as high as ten rounds a minute.

I might at some point cut this tank in half, and render a picture of the internal layout.
