Default Egyptian?

Just got back from two weeks in deepest, darkest mountainous Cumbria. It's a 15-cwt C.S.8 Series II? or III? However I am betting that it is one of those sent out to Egypt from 1935 onwards. The 1936 and 1937 WD Trials Reports refer to them and I mention them in turn in VINTAGE ROADSCENE magazine, Military Scene. Problems were experienced with sand ingestion that ruined engines rapidly, and this was partly alleviated by new air filters. Lessons learned...
