my cousins fella has around 40 of these old granadas,a couple of them have a different name,cant remember off the top of my head what name,maybe a consul or something,not sure tho . he collects them etc and stores them on a farm.2 years ago an artic lorry turned up wen there wasnt anyone there and stole a lorry load.and 2 weeks ago the same happened again.
heard rumours they were stolen by banger boys who desperately wanted them for banger racing.

Harvey how's it goin mate. Was just wondering. My old mans mate had 1 of these back in the early 80's but don't know what he did with it but it was identical to this 1. Don't suppose it has a stupid box above the centre consul the makes diffrent siren noises like police etc does it?
