Car Forum / Australian Car Forums / General Car Topics (Australian group) / March 2006Pssst - wanna buy a Bushmaster?
Can't find a URL for it - if anybody else can, feel free to post. In todays Daily Torygraph, the Cars section contains a story about the Bushmaster being built by ADI for the Australian Army. Apparently the seppo's were impressed enough to arrange for a facility in Oshkosh - gotta love the name - to be set up to build them for their military. But the kicker is, some of these vehicles are already in use in Iraq and Afghanistan. They have caught the eyes of Arab Sheiks and US football players who want to know if they can be purchased for private use, a mere $600,000. Now it's the last one that sets me smiling. A Bushmaster pimpmobile. Paint it bright yellow, add - I dunno. 30"? - rims, Krell amps with Velodyne 1812 sub-woofer, low-rider suspension. Am I missing anything?... Anybody willing to guess at a description of the driver??? :-) Steve > Can't find a URL for it - if anybody else can, feel free to post. http://www.adi-limited.com/2-01-010-040-030.html > In todays Daily Torygraph, the Cars section contains a story about the > Bushmaster being built by ADI for the Australian Army.

Did you check out the 12mb vid of the beast in action? And if you take a link to the ballistics and armour plate bit, there's a jpg of one going over a landmine.

But that was a long time ago..... Wouldnt mind having a drive of a Bushmaster though.

Ugly bastards but good at what thet did. I'm not sure why they built them when the Tankies are tearing around in Canadian ASLAV's which are very similar.
