In my opinion one of the nicest kits to come out of the Matchbox range in the 1970's was the Dingo Scout Car. It was a nice simple kit to construct and was accurate in every respect (maybe apart from the chunky Bren LMG). The main drawback of this kit was you had to buy Monty's Caravan to get it, and how many Caravans do you need on the battlefield?
Revell has re-released it and it is quite pricey for a 1/76 kit, but since it is the only Dingo available in plastic they have you by the short and curlies. I brought this set new for $10.00 on trademe, which is about one third of the cost of one from a model shop, so I lucked out.
I would love to get two or three more of these for my British Force, as they were very common vehicles in their ORBAT, but I don't fancy my luck.
