The version without a roof:

Horrendous or not, that depends on what you classify as horrendous 50 Euros is fairly normal for a resin kit of this size. I presume that the roof will not add too much to the price. Still the same "bowl" seat though, don't know if the Wehrmacht ever used the version with the bench seat ...

For the same money you could get Dragons Sd.Kfz. 250/3 Greif

On the other hand you could get a V170 for considerably less:

It is all a matter of personal choice and preferences,
build a less common kit or something like the 250/3 ?


I wonder what the Wehrmacht or Luftwaffe used them for, hauling smallish trailers or smaller airplanes on an airfield maybe or pulling smaller loads in depots ....
Would be nice with a 1/35 Luftwaffe fighter plane, would make a nice diorama with one of ICM's or Miniarts "civilian" cars

or maybe

It's a cute little thing though
