what did I see in Holland last week?

3 big armoured tracked things, like a Leopard (which the Dutch army has) but without a turret, just a small cab with windows plonked on top, rounded a bit like the cab of a JCB fast track thing, but a bit lower profile
rattling along the motorway with a police escort

one of the 3 had a bloody big gun, maybe it was a PhZ2000, the others had no visible weaponry

This is the Leopard 2 equivalent of the Leopard I trainer in the post above.

It's a Fahrschulpanzer Leopard 1 driver training tank without the dummy gun fitted:
