I wish are car had one of these.

Yep, stuff your night vision, fancy elecetronic gizmoes..as long as we can have a cuppa we can beat the enemy.

Reminds me of the Asterix comic where they go to Britain and the Romans find the Brits pack up at 5 for a spot of tea.

I'm a terrible stereotype....
I have just seen this with a cuppa beside me.

Tea and warm ale all the way!

That's what us Brits really mean when we 'brew up' a tank

That's one expensive teapot.

Better be carefull with that hot tea pot when the driver decides to speed up suddenly or take a sharp turn.

Americans have to step out, make a camp site and brew their brew. I've been in a couple M1's and they have no such niceties. All business in those things.

But I tell you this. When people are shooting, I'd rather brew my tea in my tank!
