Late in 1948. Daimler was awarded a contract to design and build
prototypes of a new scout car under the designation FV701. The
first prototype was completed in 1949 and delivered to the Army for
trials the following year. After trials it was adopted for service
with the British Army and was named the Ferret. The first
production Ferret. the Mk 2. was completed in mid-1952 and the
first production Mk 1 was completed late the same year. Throughout
its production life the basic hull of the Ferret remained unchanged
although slightly more powerful engines were installed as well as
different turrets fitted to meet different requirements. Production
of the Ferret was finally completed in 1971 by which time 4. 09
vehicles of all types had been built.

This Daimler Scout Car went into service with the British Army in
1964 and was registered 18EA62. It is unknown when it was released
into civilian life but it was first registered with the current
registration number in 2004. The vendor believes that the added
chromework. (which can be easily removed. was fitted to enhance
the vehicle as a promotional car for a World famous British heavy
weight boxer. This scout car is supplied with a V5C registration
document. an MoT declaration of exemption. a Bovington Tank Museum
certificate. a file containing invoices and a workshop manual. Also
supplied are a pair of original radio helmets so the tank commander
can talk to the driver. This is an ideal vehicle to take to the
many retro events which are happening around the UK or popping down
the pub on a Sunday.
