"I'd forgotten all about it and then at work I had a call saying 'Hello sir you've just bought a tank'."
"I had a bid on one and then I had a phone call at work and of course everyone in the office was laughing at me."
"I was living in a flat at the time so we had to have a look around for a house with a nice bit of space to park the tank on the drive."
When operational, the CVRT Scorpion light tank has a top speed of 50mph and has a 75mm cannon - which has been disarmed. The military machine is now parked proudly on his drive in Bradley Stoke. His surprised neighbours have now dubbed him the 'Tank Man'.
