@@itchyomalley yes they had reverse lights. Located in the tail light assembly with the brake lights and no flashers on the sides just front and back corners. Owned one of these for 4 years and still miss the old girl....
@@Dargonkin527 no the Canadian version like the one in the video did not have backup lights. the NATO tail light assemblies had standard brake and tail, with blackout lights at the bottom. The German may have had one but I doubt it as there is no provision on the transmission for a switch, but that's not GerMax335's question of the Bombardier version which did not.
@@itchyomalley as a former owner AND as a driver of the quebec built Bombardier iltis when they were still being used by our militaryI can absolutely verify that they all had backup lights on them. They would not be road legal if they did not have them the small white lights at the top of each unit served as the reverse light....might want to check your info source :)
@@itchyomalley you can see at 1:16 IN THIS VIDEO the tail assembly has the backup light on this one as well just above the blackout light, now if the bulbs are burnt out that is a whole other thing right :)
I learned how to drive standard in one of these in Petawawa 1989. (man I am old)
It's okay, I learned about this vehicle from Sliders. An American TV show from the early 2000's were all getting old.
J'adore ! merci pour le partage ;)
dont let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy !,
Bombardier should reproduce the Iltis under the Polaris brand and for 15 grand.
I drove one from the 70s, and them pedals are very sensitive i gotta say
Georgia plates? Was this Iltis made in Quebec?
Yes, at the Bombardier factory. Used by the Canadian Army.
Yeehh cool car drove them for years and was always happy not to get my a** broken. :)))
What insurance company did you use for the Iltis? I have one as well and struggling to find an insurance company.
have you tried Hagerty
Is there still a market for parts?
Yes, there is....
15 years ago you could buy these for like 1000 euros from army.
I bought mine for $750 in 2005 and sold it for $5000 in 2018.
Are these well made vehicles?
Not at all
Why? Could you elaborate with believable arguments?
wait the iltis of bombardier had flashers in the fender where the yellow reflectors are or am i wrong ?
just reflective stickers on the sides, no civvie side markers or backup lights.
