1944 Cromwell Mk IV Type E 75mm - New Auction, New Start

  • 24-10-2025

This time, we start differently.

Usually, we kick off our auction introductions with a parade of fully restored and running vehicles; each with its own proud story to tell. But this time, we begin with something truly special: a project where you decide how the story continues.

This 1944 Cromwell Mk IV Type E is not just another tank, it’s the foundation of an exceptional restoration project.

Built on a rolling hull complete with transmission and a fitted (but not connected) diesel engine, it gives its new owner the unique opportunity to shape the final result. You can choose to complete it as a historically accurate Mk IV Type E 75 mm, or transform it into a World War II ARV configuration; both entirely authentic options, but with different budget requirements.

In either case, this Cromwell offers a solid, historically correct base for a stunning restoration and a rare opportunity to bring a true British icon back to life.

Even more remarkable, this lot is the only one in our current auction offered as is/where is, with a Buy Now Option, available for € 80,750 (ONO).

For those who would like to see the project professionally completed, restoration specialist BAIV BV can take care of the full rebuild to your specifications.

Interested? View are detailed lot page and contact us to discuss the possibilities and decide how this story should be finished; your way.
