Default Brit carriers issued ?

I'm certain I have seen several references to the Australian Forces being issued early production british universal Carriers in theatre - so it stands to reason that softskin support vehicles would also be issued from British stocks.

I seem to recall that the surviving carriers were returned to the British afterwards - but this may also have something to do with the suggestion that they were not too reliable.

Sorry to be vague on the sources - I have been away from the Military Scene tall ship sailing for several years and my reference library is in disarray !
