Maybe it is like the Defender. Remove the seat base, remove the cover on the seat box and err, well.....

This is the original Priscilla, cramped and slow, took nearly 3 hours to make it from Wilkins to Casey which is very tedious when you got up at 2am to make the flight.

The new one looks so much better, might have to go back for a ride!

BOMBS AWAY!!!!

I must be a pessimist, looking at the specs of the original and seeing what was ordered for the Antarctic crew, it looks like a pen pusher has been at it again...

Irrelevent of engine manufacturer, they put a less powerful engine in yet could have had one at the same weights...

Fuel supply is probably bare minimum, 140 k round trip, if they are in a storm and stuck at 10 kmh, they wouldnt have enough fuel for one way trip...

What the engine requires plus the heating system, it dont add up...

I spose I am not there and only travelled on firm land with no ice or snow, but I would have thought that in that environment you would over engineer some things like supplies if caught out...

Oh well, looks pretty!

They do state the engine selected is the sane used in the cranes they have so they already have parts and service knowledge.

Still puzzles me why suck a small fuel tank...
