Nice, and worth every penny if you can identify it’s provenance.
The current vendor has removed the anti aircraft guns etc. but will gladly let you have them for the right price... lol  Ride like you stole it!!

At least it does not look as if it has spent that 1,000 miles either in the sea at Instow or dropped out of a Herc over Salisbury Plain.....
Anyone taken a Geiger counter to it...  you never know what they have done to it |

Interesting “opportunity”
I have a Wolf, bought from MOD through Brightwells last year. I looked at the auctions, and studied the photos rather a lot before and since my purchase. My comments on this specific one are. The steering wheel looks like it has done more than 1000 miles. All the radio kit has been removed, including the 24v additional alternator. The hood looks a bit rough. Wolfs don’t have the spares on the bonnet. The rear bench seats aren’t the best and obviously not original, never had bench seats in FFR 90s Tyres look too worn for 1000 miles, probably been changed. So, not 100% original vehicle. Not a concours vehicle. I would guess this would have sold around 14k all in through Brightwells from the MOD Since been cleaned, tidied, surplus stuff removed and registered. |

The steering wheel looks like it has done more than 1000 miles. ON THE FENCE WITHOUT SEEING IT IN PERSON
All the radio kit has been removed, including the 24v additional alternator. IT IS A GS NEVER HAD RADIO KIT The hood looks a bit rough. IT IS 25 YEARS OLD AND IS THE ORIGINAL TYPE WITH THE HARD TO FIND WINTER WATER INSULATION NOT A STANDARD RAD-HAZ LINER Wolfs don’t have the spares on the bonnet. ALL WOLFS HAVE PROVISION FOR A BONNET MOUNTED WHEEL The rear bench seats aren’t the best and obviously not original, never had bench seats in FFR 90s THEY LOOK THE SAME AS THE NEW ONES I HAVE AND NOT FFR Tyres look too worn for 1000 miles, probably been changed. So, not 100% original vehicle. WITH THE CORRECT AIR INTAKE TOP REFITTED (IN THE BOX)IT LOOKS ORIGINAL EVEN DOWN TO THE SCREWDRIVER UNDER THE BONNET BUT WITH A MILITARY FITTED REMUS UPGRADE Not a concours vehicle. A VERY NICE L/R THAT HAS NOT BEEN RESTORED OFF THE END OF THE PRODUCTION LINE IT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CONCOURS I would guess this would have sold around 14k all in through Brightwells from the MOD ps this is not mine I do not work for brightwells I do not know whos it is Since been cleaned, tidied, surplus stuff removed and registered. I DONT THINK ANYTHING HAS BEEN REMOVED THE TOOLS AND TOW STRAP HAVE BEEN ADDED |

Apologies, you are correct about it being gs. I was looking at the amount of holes in the bulkhead with nothing screwed in.
But I stick with my comments on the steering wheel, not having an original spare wheel mount and previous value. Some stuff has been removed, shown in photos and stated in description. But parts included. Don’t forget the mileage is not warranted! this should have been in the listing! The MOD military vehicle sales state mileage not warranted. I will add I am not saying it isn’t worth it. I enjoy mine, and this one might have sold for £27k, that is good if I ever think of selling mine. In general they appear to have increased in value by about £2k in the past year |
