HAVE YOU GOT A SPARE £100K FOR A CENTURY 21 PROP?

This is the most expensive prop the Prop Gallery has for sale, a cool £99,995! It also happens to be from Gerry Anderson's output, namely the Crablogger base station in Thunderbirds and the ambulance in Captain Scarlet. 

Here's the Prop Gallery's listing, which is an interesting read.

I assume this vehicle was designed by Derek Meddings himself. Does anyone know?

I wonder who would buy this? Who could afford it? What a Christmas gift it would be!

    Probably a Mike Trim design, looking at the shape of it. Clearly aimed at the collector who wants something original and unusual, but that price is unfeasible. Maybe 10k would be an upper limit, but as its not the Crablogger itself and only has screentime for a few seconds on either show, its a big ask! Bill

    There's nothing better than this. A 100K restoration!
