Basically yes it was used by the Wehrmacht as a light staff car. Some
may have been used as Kfz 2 as well but I have not be able to locate any
photographic proof of this so far but if you want I'll give it another go.
The long wheelbase 23S was more common (and more interesting) and used
in the Kfz 11 series. Other Wanderers used were the W11, W14 and W21
used in the Kfz 12 series.
Wasn't going to cover this series for another two years but if anyones
interested i'll do the pages.
TTFN
Jim
