acrylics 2016,
the First World War saw a great number of different armoured cars, before and after the first tanks appeared in the battlefield. Here are just a few examples used;
Top left: Belgian Minerva car patrolling on the outskirts of a German occupied town, August 1914.
Top right: British Rolls-Royce Mk I, in Egypt, 1916. The upper panels of the armour has been removed from the turret, as it was often the case in desert regions.
Lower left: After the war, German E-V/4 Panzerkraftwagen Ehrhardt being used by the Freikorps in Berlin, during the uprising January 1919.
Lower right: Russians decided to produce a domestic version on the chassis of British Austin. Due the revolution of 1917, the "Russian Austins" didn't quite make it to the WW1. But it was extensively used in the following Civil War and the related conflicts, especially by the Reds. This car became known as Austin-Putilov.

Saw a picture of an Admiralty Pattern Mk 1 in the Palestine campaign with the dual wheel combination in front as well as in the rear. And carrying two tons of 3/8" armor plating must have made this necessary. Not to mention uncomfortable to ride in, especially when this baby can reach 60 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour)!
