Thread: Spotted a yellow civvy FC in Maldon

It belongs to 'Cooee' I think, although I think it was for sale or something - I didn't really pay attention to the conversation.

It's actually a military FC (all of them are) and has been 'civilianised'.

Unless it was a private import.

I thought the 101 was never sold to civilians? ie: an import would still be ex mil!

IIa and IIb FC's had a civvy market.

Not sure about the 101's though.

No civvy market on 101's at all. All ex-military.

I am pretty sure Andrew has sold it now

It was yellow with a white roof and a couple of big spotties on the front bumper.
Was anyone here driving it?

Was it a 101 or series 2 FC? If a yellow 101 most likely Cooee's old 101 but it did not have a white roof - had a black tilt.

Where are the pics?

Sorry - I should have been more specific.

Correct, IIA / IIB FCs were not specifically for military contracts, whereas the 101 FC was.

Yep Cooee sold his 101 about a year back to a bloke down Melbourne way from memory but as said above it had a black tilt not white.. and it was bright Defender Extreme Yellow.
