Default Lynx and Dingo scout car

Hi guys,
Anybody can tell me the visual differences between a Lynx and a Dingo ?? They look quite identical for my eyes !

Default Lynx/Dingo difference

It's all in the accent

not the same and the difference is not the accent either.

Dingo has a longer nose then the lynx for a start.

Now I am not sure where the dingo pic came from but it may have been Keith Webb but I am not sure.

cheers
Cliff

Cliff, not the Australian Dingo, the Daimler Dingo.

The quickest ID for the Daimler Dingo is the narrow wheels/tyres, with a hubcap on the centre. The Lynx has balloon tyres with the wheel nuts visible. The rear engine cover on a Lynx is longer with vents for the radiator. Daimler Dingo has independant coil suspension, Lynx has CMP straight axles.

OK sorry did not know the Daimler was named 'dingo'. Bit confusing having two AC's named the same.

thanks for the correction Tony

cheers
