    I have just received a photograph from a friend, of a rather nice Bren Gun Carrier.

    I have asked him if it is a local enthusiast that owns it, but at the moment I am guessing that it lives in the Haifa area of Israel, where my friend lives.

    Looks more like a Universal Carrier mate ;) But still very nice!

    I have just received a reply that this vehicle is part of a Private Collection and is located in Beer-Sheva.

    yes universal carrier, it has the mk1 firing rail on the center bulkhead but without seeing the rear pannel i cant verify its exact mk. the extra lamps on the wings are not factory (or fitted by our lot ever) and the lamp in the AA pintle mount is canadian pattern.... i cant tell if the front fender lamps are canadian or Brit pattern. 100% not a bren carrier as the front idler tensioners are wrong to be a bren. it is most likely an mid to late production mk1

    tis a nice carrier though.
