Hanomag Kurier 2 ?

Wendax · October 29, 2015, 03:41:29 PM

Yes, locked for you to find its purpose.

looks like sightseeing bus, probably used in a European city with lots of sun

Wendax · October 30, 2015, 03:49:59 PM

Not a sightseeing bus. Still locked for two more tries.

morphly · October 31, 2015, 08:50:30 AM

A bus on a large factory site?

Wendax · October 31, 2015, 09:54:03 AM

No, locked for one more try. Take a close look.

Maybe farfetched but: to transport firefighters?

Wendax · November 01, 2015, 02:30:54 AM

Not farfetched at all! Not quite correct, but so close that I will call it solved. It was used to carry policemen. The doors were left away, so that the policemen could leave the vehicle fast. By the time this Hanomag was built, this was a rather outdated design.

Thanks for the point
