The record
The Mk II answered the complaints of the Mk I, which had itself waited until mid-1941 because the weight kept breaking the transmission.
Procedural model research, 2026-09-28: new shared armoured hull and two-man turret represented in Mk II form. 2590 mm wheelbase, four shared road wheels and independent coil detail, curved mudguards, recessed nose headlamps, central driver and roof escape hatch, rounded gun mantlet, 40 mm main gun and coaxial machine gun, turret-right searchlight and paired smoke tubes on both sides. Right-side water tins and left fixed spare are distinct; rear deck and large cooling shutters follow the museum walkaround. All 20 supplied originals inspected. Service-drab paint is representative and no unidentified unit/census markings have been invented. The existing export-operator list is broader than this British Army row and is preserved for review. Main cannon and paired smoke use shared gameplay controls; coaxial gun is visual. Handling data are arcade tuning. Full inventory/provenance: research/model-notes/stoneleigh-armoured-car.md.
