Marmon-Herrington Armoured Car Mk IV F – Bovington Tank Museum (UK)
Used by Greek Cypriot National Guard, Cyprus. Transported to U.K. by LSL Sir Tristram, from Akrotiri to Marchwood - June 1986. This is the South African armoured car based on the Canadian F60L 3-ton lorry chassis, still known as the Marmon-Herrington, although
containing none of their components. They were used by the Free Greeks during the Second World War, who passed them on to the Greek Cypriot National Guard, who used the cars into the 1980's, re-engined with 6 cylinder diesels (http://www.tankmuseum.org/)

This vehicle had its turret removed but has been equipped with a 3.7 inch pack howitzer instead. It is believed to be a Jordanian conversion. Jordan received 270 armored cars (mostly Marmon Herringtons) from the UK in the late 1940s and early 1950s

I'm looking for photos of those vehicles:
Any vehicle that I forgot...
This document is a compilation of photos published on the web. I would like to thank especially Rafał Białęcki, who deserved the most job on this document, and
also the people who took these photos and put them on their websites, or sent them to me, and those who helped me doing these lists (particularly people of the AFV News Discussion Board). For any question, you can email me at soldat_ryan@hotmail.com
