This story brings out my charitable side. I would like to assume the burden of storing these pieces free of charge to all parties involved. I would be willing to provide safe storage of these pieces indefinitely. If need be I would even cover the financial cost, of having the proper documentation drawn up, to tranfer ownership to me. In his advanced years the owner shouldn’t have to deal with the strain of fighting the government. My charitable act would also save the German tax payers money.
TANKS FOR SALE!

Good video! RIP Mr. Collector.

A centurion for 92000$ seems a bargain all right. Probably cost that much to transport it back go the new owner’s home!
I think the German Halftrack would have been my choice too, if I could have had any of the options. Is there a comprehensive list or a link to one?
I wonder what the Sherman was which did not sell for 800000$.
Thanks Garg. -
Awesome collection

Hey this is the same one I linked to a while back… though it was about to be auctioned at that time.
Cool to see what they went for though.

Yes, but they guzzle gas and I think that British gasoline (I should say petrol) is very expensive. But for pure display purposes it’s not a bad deal, if you have the space for it.

When you can spend $92,000 pocket money on a tank, the cost of petrol is no longer a concern. :)

Good point. It all depends on what “disposable income” means to a given person. Reminds me of the old joke about the very wealthy guy who’d buy a new Mercedes whenever the ashtray of his current one got full. :-)
