They were displayed inside the "circus maximus" in the center of Rome, for the Italian armed forces day (November 4), I think their usual home is the Ceccignola army motorization museum (sooner or later I will find the time to go there, it's ridiculous that I visited the IWM dozens of times and never looked next door).
Most was modern stuff but there were some historical vehicles, as you can see from this pic the setting was great (the ruins in the background is the Roman forum!!).

BTW You can still identify the "other", I didn't note down the plate and I've forgotten what it is exactly, it's some sort of artillery tractor.
