How to buy a tank

Do you need something bulletproof for the shopping and school runs, but even the armoured BMW X5 Security Plus just isn't quite enough? Perhaps a tank would do the job.

And like any vehicle purchase, you'll need to do some research. But information about tank buying and ownership is generally a bit scarce. Happily, wish.co.uk have some answers -- including where to buy a tank in Australia.

They've set the details out in a handy infographic that gives you the basics in an easily understandable form. You also gets the specs on some of the most popular tanks such as the US M1A1 Abrams and the Russian T-34. To see that latter one in action before making your choice, head over to our story and video on the Russian tank Olympics.

You'll want to carefully weigh up the comparative fuel economy of different models, but if you're going to spend somewhere north of $150,000 or so, you're perhaps not worried about the ongoing bowser bills.

A word of warning: you're probably not going to be allowed to keep the gun in firing order. But the sight of even a non-firing one should be enough to scare a space into the school drop-off zone as soon as loom over the horizon.
