Except you need a 1914 Pattern Rolls for that, not a 1920. (Which they also make in 1/35.)

Interesting, that they include markings for one that isn't British; that hasn't been done before. These armored cars were handed over to the army of the Irish Free State and took part in the subsequent Irish civil war.

Hmm ... hopefully the kit is a lot better than the "historical" blurb above!

You're right, Mike, I had the earlier kit in mind.
