Saracen APCs driven and maintained by 'A' Squadron, 14th/20th Hussars.

The Saracen had a good performance on the road, but it's cross country performance was not that impressive. You could not fight from it and had to de-bus on the objective.

Nearly all other Armies had tracked APCs. I wonder what was the rationale behind the British Army's choice of a 6-wheeled APC?
