Manufacturer description

Here we see the British two-man light, fast, four wheel drive reconnaissance vehicle as deployed in a desert role. Presented in an all-over desert scheme, the Brigade's famous emblem of the red rat featured on the front and back of the Scout Car says it all! Military numbering is printed in black, while minute details include the dark grey fuel cans held with brown straps plus aerials and aerial bases masked black and dark grey. Another great addition to your North African World War II diorama!
