    I bet the DRS employees were sad to see them go. Very happy about the remaining 37s with DRS being sold to Europhoenix and Andania engineering. I was a bit worriewd they might go to the scrappers or get exported like the HSTS

    You'd think DRS would have cleaned up 069 after Sandite duties. Imagine doing some off roading in your car and not bothering to clean it before prospective buyers come to see it for sale 🙂
