I thought these three videos put together show the story of the earliest tanks

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESKxi4EEDUQ

And the British tank.
Now, interestingly it uses a Daimler engine and was to have been replaced by a "Ricardo" one.

The clutch always sticks, and starts with a jerk. My car grows red hair, and flies through the air. Driving's a blast, a blast from the past.
