Tankfest 2012

Tankfest is an annual two-day show hosted by the Tank Museum at Bovington, Dorset. Many of the Museum's vehicles are in running order, and a large selection of these is displayed in the arena in front of the Museum building. For many, the highlight of the show is the sight of famous tanks from WWII being driven, including, of course, the Museum's Tiger Ausf. E, which is the only example of its type in the world still in running order. Vehicles from the Museum's large collection of Cold War-era machines are also displayed, and the British Army also show off their latest tanks, carriers and recovery vehicles to the crowds.
