The Minerva TT is a rare representative of one of the most prestigious Belgian vehicle manufacturers in automotive history. Minerva gained worldwide fame for its luxury cars, but after the Second World War the company also built robust off-road vehicles for military use. The TT combines simple and reliable engineering with excellent off-road capabilities and a distinctive character, making it particularly sought after today by collectors of military vehicles.

This example from 1952 has undergone a good professional restoration and is finished in authentic Army Green. The vehicle is powered by a reliable 1,997 cc four-cylinder engine, paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. The currently indicated mileage is 683 km, and the odometer was adjusted after the reconstruction. The bodywork presents well and was repainted in its original colour. The underside shows an honest older restoration, while the engine compartment matches the authentic character of the vehicle. Thanks to its simple mechanics, robust construction and historical background, this Minerva TT is a particularly interesting classic for enthusiasts of Belgian military vehicles.
