"Major Paddy Mayne S.A.S."
"Paddy" Mayne was one of the true legends of WW2... The winner of no less than 4 D.S.O.'s he served with the Special Air Service almost from the formation of the Regiment.
Brave... bold... and sometimes reckless "Paddy" Mayne was responsible for personally destroying over 130 German and Italian aircraft on raids on Axis airfields. While fighting he could be superb... out of the line he could be extremely difficult. A complex but very brave soldier.
Here he's dressed in typical casual S.A.S.Desert style.

"Universal Carrier"
One of the war's most famous British vehicles these little carriers usually mounted a Bren Gun... Ours however had adopted the heavier, belt-fed Vickers Machine Gun. In 7th.Armoured Division markings ("The Desert Rats") it comes with 2 crew.

"The Desert Bentley"
How this pre war "touring Bentley" came to end up with the S.A.S is interesting... it was won in a poker game in Alexandria. Originally owned by a wealthy British Cavalry officer he lost it (along with a great deal of money) to a friend of "Paddy" Mayne's. When "Paddy" saw it he had S.A.S mechanics overhaul it... paint it... and customize it (guns and all) for Desert operations.
K&C's version comes with a seated S.A.S. driver.
