===TankTiger 131===
{{Main|Tiger 131}}
On 21 April 1943, a Tiger I of the 504th [[German heavy tank battalion]], with [[Tiger 131|turret number 131]], was captured on a hill called Djebel Djaffa in Tunisia. A [[Ordnance QF 6 pounder|6-pounder]] solid shot from a Churchill tank of the British [[48th Royal Tank Regiment]] hit the Tiger's gun barrel and ricocheted into its turret ring, jamming its traverse and wounding the commander. The crew bailed out and the tank was captured.{{efn|The conservators have kept the damage caused by the ricochet unpainted, it can be observed at the Bovington Tank museum.}}{{sfn|Carruthers|2000}}{{Page needed|date=September 2010}}. After repairs, the tank was sent to England for a thorough inspection.
The captured tank was officially handed over to the [[Bovington Tank Museum]] by the British [[Ministry of Supply (UK)|Ministry of Supply]] on 25 September 1951. In June 1990, the tank was removed from display at the museum and work began on its restoration. This was carried out both by the museum and the [[Army Base Repair Organisation]] and involved an almost complete disassembly of the tank. The Maybach HL230 engine from the museum's [[Tiger II]] was installed (the Tiger's original Maybach HL210 had been sectioned for display<ref>[http://www.tiger-tank.com/secure/journal41.htm The Tiger Tank Restoration project - "Our Tiger" Journal<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>), along with a modern fire-suppressant system in the engine compartment. In December 2003, Tiger 131 returned to the museum, restored and in running condition. This Tiger was used in the film [[Fury (2014 film)|''Fury'']], the first time an original, fully mechanically operable Tiger I has appeared in a movie since World War II.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-24987676|title=BBC News - 'Last' WW2 Tiger tank to be used in Brad Pitt film|work=BBC News}}</ref>
===Others===
Given the low number of just over 1,300 Tiger I's produced during World War II, very few survived the war and the post-war scrap drives. Many large components have been salvaged over the years, but the discovery of a (more or less) complete vehicle has so far eluded enthusiasts and collectors. In addition to Tiger 131, six other Tiger tanks survive as of June 2013, at the following locations:
* [[Musée des Blindés]] in [[Saumur]], [[France]]. Indoor exhibit in good condition. Mid 1944 version with overlapping roadwheels adopted from the Tiger II, fitted with narrow transport tracks. This Tiger was part of the 2nd company of the [[SS Heavy Panzer Battalion 102]], fought in the [[Cauville]] sector, and was abandoned by her crew after a mechanical breakdown. She was recommissioned as ''Colmar'' with the 2nd squadron of the [[6th Cuirassier Regiment (France)|6th Cuirassier Regiment]], fighting all the way back to Germany.
* [[Vimoutiers]], [[Normandy]] [[France]] : The "[[Vimoutiers Tiger tank]]". Abandoned by its crew in August 1944. Outdoor monument. In bad condition, due to the time effect and the elements.
* [[Kubinka Tank Museum]], [[Moscow]], [[Russia]], in good condition. Displayed as an indoor exhibit.
* Military-historical Museum of Lenino-Snegiri, Russia. In very bad condition. As a former firing range target it is badly shot and cut up. Displayed as an outdoor exhibit.
* Tiger 712[250031] of the 501st Heavy Panzer Battalion is part of the United States Army Armor & Cavalry Museum, [[Fort Benning, Georgia]]. In good condition. The left side of the hull and turret were cut-away in the late 1940s for interior training and display purposes.
* German Panzer Museum, Munster has a Tiger I now on display.<ref>[http://www.panzermuseum-munster.de/home/aktuelles/detail/article/die-schwerste-katze-aller-zeiten.html Deutsches Panzermuseum Munster: Die schwerste Katze aller Zeiten<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> This tank was reconstructed by Mr Hoebig in Germany, using parts found in the Trun scrapyard in Normandy <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ouest-france.fr/actu/actuLocale_-Un-char-Tigre-Allemand-reconstruit-avec-des-pieces-de-la-poche-de-Falaise-Chambois_40772-2173893------61001-aud_actu.Htm|title=Un char Tigre Allemand reconstruit avec des pièces de la poche de Falaise-Chambois|work=Ouest-France.fr}}</ref> and some parts found in Kurland (Latvia).
