The AEC armoured car history is here

The model:

Initially, I bought the miniart AEC mkI model on the stock market to realize that it was missing the decals and several pieces, when we do not pay attention …
Fortunately, I also owned the mkIII version from accurate armour which is an old reference but remains a good base. Lack of luck, the decals are not provided in the box, but after contact with miniart, they were kind enough to send them to me, thank you to them!

The model is a large resin mass with some elements in white metal especially for the running gear as is the custom of the brand. In spite of its age, the resin and the molding are of good quality and are assembled without particular problem. Be careful, however, of the location of some badly indicated parts. Some improvements have been made such as an aluminum barrel and some redone pieces. The antenna on the picture is wrong and will be reworked.
