Description
Alvis Saladin with Deactivated 76mm Gun. This is a tidy, nice running Saladin with deactivated 76mm gun, radios and some cs kit.
It starts and drives very well. The accumulator for brakes needs charging but other than that a very nice machine.
Rare these days and available for export or UK buyer.
