World War One (WW1) Mark 4 Full Size Model Tank

This fantastically engineered tank was designed for Kenneth Brannagh and Stephen Fry's adaptation of Mozart's the Magic Flute movie. Due to the fact the filming was carried out in a studio this world war one (WW1) mark 4 tank could not weigh more than a few tons (the weight of a car.) and was originally run with electric motors. These have been replaced with a diesel engine to make this life size tank more authenticate tank was constructed of a steel chassis with the tracks made to the exact design of the original mark 4 and panelled with marine ply and then painted. The tank cost nearly £30,000 to construct and was modelled on an original mark 4 tank at Bovington tank Museum. This tank is full operational and also perfect to hire for a static display because of the weight (or lack of it!). This means if you are on a budget for some military hardware this is a great military tank to consider. It can be decorated in your company colours and only by standing up really close can you tell it is not the real McCoy.
