Mike, great photo, I have seen it before. That Lynx is an early Mk.1 with the rounded armour over the fuel tanks and hinged covers for the grease points on the front. Interestingly they have modified the sand channel holders and turned the sand channels 90% for more storage and protection. Is that a mounting for a Boyes AT gun attached to the usual bren gun hatch on the front windscreen armour?

Regards Rick.
