I cannot see the tea mugs. Cannot imagine a British army command vehicle without them. Or are they optional extras

And with German figures it can be used as one of Rommel's "Mammuts."

What level were these issued at? Brigade? Division? Were they used in Italy/N.Europe/Asia?

Put ‘Dorchester' in the Quick Find box towards the upper right of the web page.

Shortly after his arrival in the African theatre, Rommel launched a limited offensive against the Commonwealth troops which soon evolved into an impressive advance.
In early April 1941, Aufklärungs Abt. 3 reached the region of Mechili where it succeeded in capturing two British generals and their Armoured Command Vehicles (ACV).
The two generals who the vehicles had belonged to were Lt.Gen. Philip Neame, commander of the 8th Army and his assistant commander, Lt.Gen. Richard O'Connor.
The owner of the third vehicle, Maj.Gen. Gambier-Parry, commander of 2nd Armoured.Division, succeeded in escaping the encirclement.
