Well done! It is a Hanomag 4/20 PS Kübelwagen.

One more point for you.

Not to be picky, as it was not really requested, but I believe this is a Hanomag 4/20 PS Kfz 2 Nachrichtenkraftwagen or telephone car, not a Kubel "bucket car" personnel carrier.

Note the very large compartment on the rear of the vehicle.

You are certainly right. I should have looked closer. The coachwork for the Fernsprechkraftwagen was done by Magirus of Ulm.

Sigh, always the language barriers  :-[

I mistranslated the "N" wagen, that word should be "message car" I guess.

In any case, there were several variants with the larger boot including supply vehicles etc.
It is sometimes hard to distinguish if they are not shown with their full kit.
