Default Clarification

Can I just ask on reflection whn the AIF and perhaps NZEF left the UK did they take vehicles with them or would they have been shipped seperately?

It is obvious that at some point the AIF, and I believe the NZEF and Indian Army were lent vehicles for the Libyan campaign to start with, but did some of the forces have their own trucks as well? I have no idea whether the 120 vehicles driven from Palestine where sourced from the UK, or Australia, or more likely from trucks acquired from General Motors Near East in Alexandria as per Trans-Jordan Frontier Force, RAF, etc.
