Garage owner Stephen Matthew is really gunning for business.
He has bought a Russian T34 tank to draw attention to his premises at Frome Hill.
The Second World War tank stands proudly between the forecourt of RA Matthews Commercials and Frome Hill Car Sales.
Mr Matthews said he planned to renovate the tank with his 12-year-old son Gary and take it to car shows and steam rallies next year.
"We're interested in military vehicles and we always wanted a tank," he said. "We asked around and went to a dealer in Liverpool.
Mr Edwards said the tank had suffered an engine fire about 10 or 15 years ago and so needed a new engine.
"It's been passed about between different dealers who wanted to restore it but never did it," he explained.
Mr Matthews plans to use a heavy haulage lorry to transport the restored tank to steam rallies and shows like Bromyard Gala.
"It's all voluntary but supported by our company RA Matthews Commercials, who do commercial repairs on coaches," he said.
"It will be left on the forecourt all the time to attract attention."
