1955 Daimler Ferret Mk 1/2 Armoured Car (Scout Car)

Description
Hey guys! It's been a while since I last uploaded. Ever since my last build, I've been doing other stuff. But I recently got back on to make another build.

What I have for you is a British Ferret Armoured Car (Armored Car). "The Ferret armoured car, also commonly called the Ferret scout car, is a British armoured fighting vehicle designed and built for reconnaissance purposes. The Ferret was produced between 1952 and 1971 by the UK company Daimler. It was widely adopted by regiments in the British Army, as well as the RAF Regiment and Commonwealth countries throughout the period." -Wikipedia

To read more about the Ferret Armoured Car, go here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferret_armoured_car

Specs/Features:
-V12 Engine
-(X2) Seats; Driver and Passenger
-Made of Steel
-(X5) Hatches; 4 are programmable.
Use control: Right Alt + W or S to open it
-Fully Rotatable turret with a Vertical Drive (Heavy MG)
Use control: Right Alt + Move mouse left, right, up, and down
-Exhaust Pipe
-Head and Tail Lights (reverse lights as well)

This build is based off the 1996 Matchbox car named "Weasel." To know more about this, here's the Wiki just to answer the question on why it has American markings on it: http://matchbox.wikia.com/wiki/Weasel

If you like/dislike this armoured car, give me a rate. If you want, you can write a comment too. And if you found a flaw, or think something should be adjusted, tell me! I'd love everyone's input!

I have like 5 of the Matchbox Ferret (Weasel) armoured cars.

Yeah, they were from like the 90s. My father is a collector of all sorts of toys. Dinky, Corgi, GiJoe, Matchbox, Hot Wheels, Action Man, Johnny Lightening, and even models and diecast models. Being his son, I get the scraps, and so that means all the excess stuff he gets or has XD

A Matchbox Ferret? Hah no way. Ima check that out. It looks very nice though, I'll make sure to tear up some infantry with it.

Ah, no. If you look at the Wikipedia I posted in the description, it will give all the information you need/want about the Ferret armoured car. I just based this build off of one of my old Matchbox cars, the "Weasel," since it was the same model as the Ferret... just a different name.

I was just curious if the US had a lil history with the Ferret and you decided to model yours after one of those or something. Just a nitpick really, no need to change.

It' just decal, my dude. The Ferret is British, but England isn't the only country who has used them.
Feel free to change it. :)

Great job. But, if its British, why does it have American-eque stars on it?

Ohh, I really love this car, one of the few ground military vehicles I know! I was going to make one but pretty much already perfected it! Very nice job! :p
