Any ideas for a 1920's Turkish armoured car?

[Mark251054]

Hi,

I have a small collection of Copplestone WWI British and Turks (or arguably 1920's) mainly for semi historical or BoB games (involving my Archaeologists).

I've got a Rolls Royce armoured car for the Brits but any ideas what the Turkish equivilent could be? As usual the 'web' has come up empty handed/screened.

Cheers

Didn't you already ask this once?

The Turks would have a German one.

One of the great things about this site, in fact.

Turks might have employed captured British gear, but automobiles woud be very hard to maintain, and trained drivers plus mechanics rather scarce. I have only one postcard from before 1920 which shows two officers in an auto with mounted machine gun, and it may well be an on-the-spot effort during one of the per-WWI CUP coups.  I also have a good shot of Ottoman crews with captured Lewis guns, an indication that your Rolls Royce is not impossible, just improbable.  I could not figure how to upload these images, but if you send me an email <jdunn (at) valdosta.edu>, I'll be happy to send them your way.
