buy a tank Page 2

Thinking of rolling into the local servo with a tank? Well, you're in for a bureaucratic and financial joyride. In Australia, owning a military tank is not as simple as a Sunday drive; they're classified as restricted weapons and require special permits, which are rarely granted to civilians. Prices vary wildly depending on the tank's era, condition, and demilitarisation status, but expect to pay anywhere from $50,000 to over $1 million AUD. Maintenance costs and storage are nightmares, so unless you’re starring in Mad Max, think twice. For used military vehicles, check specialized sites like Tradingpost or CarShowroom, but be prepared for a lot of paperwork and police interest.
