SASR getting new vehicles
Ending a 50-year relationship with Land Rover, the army will also sign off next month on a $314 million contract with Mercedes Benz for 1200 new G-Wagon light four-wheel-drive vehicles as its off-roader of choice.
Special Operations Command troops, the SASR and commandos can expect to be driving an altogether new vehicle, the British-made Supacat – named the Nary in Australia in honour of Warrant Officer David Nary, who died during a Middle East pre-deployment operation in 2005.
I doubt the SASR will use them in yellow livery but this is the vehicle ordered
1200 new Mercede Benz Gelaendenwagens (G-Wagons) are also coming on line.

Could be a lot of Land Rovers coming on the market soon. Maybe I could buy another one……and maybe I could be divorced…mmm…decisions.
