Shouldn’t be anything. It said it was demilitarized. I highly doubt it could be made street legal drivable but shouldn’t be anything illegal about owning it.

Drive that to the mailbox and watch your neighbors react.

The fact that it's British is enough to make me go "no thanks."  I've had my fair share of dealing with British armor, wouldn't want to take a run at that.

If it is British it will probably just leave a big oil spot in your driveway.

Once, in England, I had a gent say to me, "Do you know why we don't build tellys (TV sets)? We haven't quite figured out how to make one leak oil."

I'm disappointed that the joke didn't end with "Lucas" is some form or fashion.

SP Gun, not a tank. But big, tracked and the squirrel killer is neat!

I did notice this after, but most people don't know the difference.

Well I used to hear stories of guys re-militarizing 50 cals. Same might be possible here ...if you had the permits....

Good ole Lucas, the prince of darkness. 

 

I'd take it.  It would be great for taking the kids to/from school.

My Rolls Royce mechanic friend has some Lucas stickers on his lift.  First one has a car and says "Lucas, inventor of the intermittent windshield wiper." The other has a toggle switch and says "Lucas, the first energy efficient lighting" with the positions being off, dim, and flicker.

I had a friend that had a bottle of Lucas smoke, for when it all escaped from the wires.

Never a good day when the magic smoke escapes.
