Reverse with date & location. The above photo is in Paris as well, but undated.

Hi Arto,
I was just looking researching this while Markus was revealing the answer and the first thing that struck me were the tires. Compare their width to those of the Type 82 E & Type 92 SS that were used by the WH and SS. They look definitely more modern. Also the lift of the vehicle is not as pronounced. Nice repro effort though.

Hi Arto, hi Max,

Could be, Bert, with a different tread pattern. That's a pretty rare 4x4 model. He's quite a lucky chap if it's original!

It is hard to say how many categories this would fit in, beute Allied, umbau, SS......
But here is a very unusual vehicle, a Bedford MW converted to Kfz21 personnel car for an SS commander. The BMW behind has a registration of SS-71352, unfortunately the oblique angle makes it impossible to read the Bedford's number..
