Thnx Gord. 23 minutes from post to answer.
What can you tell me about a Victoria CEF unit that used a Case chassis built into an armoured car?

Rolls Royce Armoured Car.

All that's missing is TE Lawrence sitting on the running board, answering questions from a journalist/photographer.

"Tell me, Colonel, what is it about the desert that you like so much"?

Answering disdainfully..."Because it's so clean". (Disparaging remark to the journalist, who is sloppily dressed vs Lawrence who is resplendent in white robes.)

Sorry, Clive...I was drifting........................
