STAFF CAR

A 'staff car' is a vehicle used by a senior military officer, and is part of their country's white fleet. The term is most often used in relation to the United Kingdom. Staff cars are often painted in camouflage colours, or plain black. In U.S.A., Brazil and other American countries the frequent colour is the olive-drab lusterless.
One example is the 1941 Buick Century Series 60, used during the Second World War. It was generally painted in khaki, with a white star on the front doors.
Another famous example is Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's, commander in chief of the Allied Forces during World War II, Packard Clipper 1942 staff car. Another well known staff car is the Plymouth P11 1941.
The ''Dad's Army'' episodes ''The Captain's Car'' and ''The Making of Private Pike'' deal with staff cars; in the former case, the car was donated by a local aristocrat.
