Well, those limits are now a thing of the past: Первые британские бронемашины Saxon прибыли в Одессу - BBC Russian

Как сообщили украинские СМИ, партия из 20 машин прибыла по назначению, в ближайшем будущем ожидаются еще 55.

"Эти "Саксоны" пришли без оружия, мы будем ставить на них боевой блок, который должен обеспечить эффективное огневое прикрытие Национальной гвардии или другим подразделениям, которым они будут поставляться", - рассказал журналистам секретарь Совета национальной безопасности и обороны Украины Александр Турчинов во время посещения учебного центра Национальной гвардии.

По словам секретаря СНБО, после испытаний бронеавтомобили "сразу поступят на вооружение наших военных".
By the way, note that the latter part of the news in which Turchinov said those armoured vehicles would be equipped with weaponry and sent to the troops is missing from the English version of the article on the same informational resource: http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-31465365

Somehow, the British side does not see the delivery of those armoured vehicles as British involvement in the war:

She said the delivery did not represent an escalation of British involvement in Ukraine.

She said: "As the foreign secretary has made clear, our policy since the beginning of the crisis has been to supply non-lethal assistance to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

"They offer protective mobility to personnel, and are defensive in nature; they are not close combat vehicles."
So, the British regard the delivery of the 75 armoured vehicles which are said by Ukraine to be equipped with the weaponry and sent to the Ukrainian troops is totally ok. I guess, in response, Russia could officially provide Novorossia with tanks which has their guns locked with padlocks and claim that the delivery of those armoured vehicles does not represent Russian involvement in the war and only provide armoured shield to the tank crew. And the fact that the Novorossian army can break the padlock and use the gun that is the sovereign right of the Novorossian military and has nothing to do with Russia. How sweet..
