Actually a batch of 101's were brought here by british aerospace for gun tractors for the rapier missle at woomera. i've also seen some that have been imported later as well.

I think BAe brought in about 20.

Yeah, where are they, and how much are they going for in reasonable nick in Oz. Matt

there was an advert for one in unique cars a while back for a 101 for about $18k I think, not running. Haven't seen a running one for sale for a while.

Joe mentioned something to me about a cuvulian FC in a padock near his place once though.
