| The group of 3 in the first message: landrover based 251 replica / same with Stu III and 12t / 250 replica's on the bridge. |

| I agree that the first one there is a 251 halftrack. Sonderkraftfahrzeug 251. The vehicles in the second pic, are two of the faux Panthers, the 251 halftrack and the DB-10 halftrack; all are seen later in the film i.e., the 251 is the same one Grabner rides in, because those are the Panzer Corps they keep ominously mentioning. They're seen first there, at rest, then in action during the Arnhem battle later when the Germans try to cross. The vehicles in the third pic are (I think), left to right, the made-for-movie armored car that Grabner's 251 rams out of its way, one of the Kubelwagons, and then another armored car replica. The Kubel is attempting to flee back the way they came (well, the driver is anyway), and it gets caught between the disabled armored car and the oncoming one and smushed, the poor thing. So, all of those are already listed except Grabner's 251, which I'd give 3 stars. -- Last edit: 2008-04-05 01:44:31 |

| Also, although most of the other armored cars on the bridge look more or less the same as the one already listed, at least one has six wheels instead of four:![[Image: bridgefarapcur2.th.jpg]](http://img389.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bridgefarapcur2.jpg "http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/9706/bridgefarapcur2.th.jpg") This is the one that crushes the Kubel between itself and the other armored car; it apparently gets free only to crash later because when the "Panther" appears later and rams it out of the way (as seen in the picture), it's moved further down the bridge. |
