This is how the vehicle first started out.It has been in service with the SA army for years as the "Mamba".In fact there are a few standing in hangers that have never been used.Make an offer ,maybe going cheap.There is another unit called the Casper which was bought by the Americans,slightly modified and has been in use in Afghanistan for some time.These vehicles were tried and tested against the Cubans during the Angolan war and came out tops.Especially where mines and explosives were concerned.

USCS M-ATV

The M-ATVs are tactical all terrain vehicles designed for U.S. soldiers and Marines in Afghanistan and other theater operations. They are lighter, more mobile versions of the first-generation Mine Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicles (MRAP’s) that can provide comparable protection from roadside bombs, explosively formed projectiles and rocket propelled grenades when using appliqué armor. “This vehicle has the survivability of an MRAP and the mobility of a Humvee (HMMWV),” said Matt Riddle, Vice President and General Manager of USCS. “It has the optimum capabilities needed by our troops in Afghanistan.” The USCS M-ATV drew on the developmental experience of the nine RG-33 MRAP variants (originally designed by BAE in South Africa and built in York, Pennsylvania USA) currently deployed in Iraq, providing the same level of armored protection at a reduced vehicle weight. The company designed, developed, produced and fielded over 2,000 RG-33 vehicles from 2007 to 2008 in order to meet urgent government need for armored tactical vehicles says BAE
