The Ferret is a lightly armed and armored scout car made in Britain in the 1950s and 1960s. Used by most Commonwealth countries, including 124 by Canada, these formed the backbone of the reconnaissance troops during the cold war period. Light, very fast, and easy to drive, the Ferrets were the sports cars of the armoured world, and were universally loved by their crews. When the Society’s Ferret Is out in public, there is always lots of interest wherever it goes!

The Society’s example was made in 1963, and the last of the Ferrets saw their final operational service in the First Gulf War of 1991.
