I came across this site with detailed pictures of a preserved Triota APC. It doesn't seem to have details of where it was photographed but has badges for 17th Battalion Tank Corps and Sharpshooters London Armoured Car Company.

The information is from September 2012.

It's at the Museo della Motorizz. Militare della Cecchignola, Rome (Italy)

this site also shows pics of two other Triotas in Northern Ireland, very similar vehicles but different headlights and extra sidelights on the other. if they're not the same vehicle in different states of restoration they must be sister vehicles.

If Ned Kelly had built himself an armoured car I suspect it would have looked something like the Triota.
