Oxford's Austin Champ replica is based on the vehicle which the Austin Motor Company manufactured between 1951 and 1956 as both a military vehicle and subsequently made for civilian use as well. It was the British Army's answer to the famous US Army's Willys MB Jeep.

This model is deployed by the 7th Armoured Division, also known as the Deserts Rats, in Germany in 1957. The Desert Rats are one of the most famous units of the British Army and made their name for their distinguished service in the deserts of North Africa in World War II. Their insignia, a red rat on a white background, can be seen on the front and the rear of our Champ, along with other military markings. Registered 10 BF 23, the Champ is decorated in a distinctive bronze green with dark beige interior seating and a lighter beige folded down hood. It also comes as a right hand drive vehicle. Intricate detailing includes the black steering wheel with silver spokes and a matt black finish to the radiator grille. Also faithful to the original is the large dark green petrol can on the back of the jeep, held in place with beige straps next to the spare wheel.
