I was wondering which Allied scout cars from WW2 are available in kit form, besides the M8 and M20 and the Zvezda White scout car.

Hi

Humber from Skp and Bronco. Staghound from Italeri and Bronco. Ancient Dingo from Tamiya or modern moulding from Miniart are a few that come to mind.

Hey Tom,
Do you mean armoured cars too, like the M8 Greyhound ??
MiniArt makes 5 variations of the British Dingo Scout Car, Bronco produces 2 versions of the British Humber Scout Car. The American built/Allied used Staghound Armoured Car has 4 versions made by Bronco and Italeri makes 3 versions of it.
Tamiya reboxed the Italeri Staghound Mk. I with some of their Universal Carrier figures.
Cheers

There's also Roden's Rolls Royce Armoured Car kit. This armoured scout car saw service in WWII in the Western Desert, Iraq, Syria and in Burma too before being withdrawn from service in 1941.
