Narva was captured by Germans 4th of March 1918. No any white armies were formed in this region till that time. From the other side, red army just only started to form. It was presented by small detachments of "curtain". The detachment of Pavel Dybenko was in Narva, but I am not sure, that this AC belong to Dybenko group. So, most probably that this AC abandoned de old Russian Army.

I had thought the Tsarist armoured cars were generally painted grey but this Mgebrov-Renault is an exception. The colour, whatever it is, is much darker than the Feldgrau uniforms
of the German troops examining the armoured car. Any ideas on what colour it might have been?
Most usable colours are Dark Green, Grass Green, Yellow Ochre. In the book of Baryatinskiy/Kolomiets colour of Mgebrov-Renault marked as Dark Green? but looks like grey on colour picture. I think that it is problem of tipography.
