VAUXHALL D TYPE - AMBULANCE 1916

Description

Vauxhall D-type Ambulance - British ambulance of the First World War, evolved by Vauxhall Motors from the famous Type D staff car. The car was redesigned for the transportation of wounded soldiers from the battlefield to military hospitals, and although it was not put into series production, it undertook this honorable mission in the early years of the Great War, along with other similarly converted cars, and it provided a foundation for the wider use of more modern advanced vehicles in this role in the British armed forces.
