Learned gentlemen please enlighten us on what this was used for (flame thrower)?

Default Carrier

Hmmmmmm.

The engine cover with the sloping rear panel reminds me of the 'real' Bren gun carrier.

The guards along the suspension look like a post war addition, perhaps agricultural?

If the vehicle was used as say an orchard sprayer, the guards would have kept the suspension from snagging the trees or bushes as the vehicle went past.
