Do you know anything on the origin of the vehicle?
Nuyt, do you mean the surviving example at the Bovington Tank Museum in the UK? That was one of the Vickers tanks ordered by the KNIL which were kept in the UK to make up for BEF tank losses in France. It was used for training in the UK and ended up in the museum. It would not have left the UK in it's entire life.
