Oh and I forgot, I had a model Unimog breakdown truck made by Britains, • so
it may not be that unkown in the UK.

That was it!!!  I knew I knew them from somewhere as a kid even though you
never see them on the road.  A friend of mine had a Britains one too!
Thanks Steve

They might seem unknown and unseen, but they are actually a bit more common
than you think. The SWEB (south western electricity board) can regularly be
seen driving 2 Unimogs in North Devon, and my brothers company uses one for
tree surgery in the Home Counties.

To keep this on .technic topic, a more recent example can be found as an
alternative model to 8446 (that green, er ultimate crane truck I think they
call it). I might have to build the 8846 from brickshelf instructions and
compare the two.
