Yeah, civilian is most likely.

Some comments from another forum:

"the consensus from a previous discussion was a one off built most likely on British chassis due to the easy clean wheels used on lots of British cars."

"The Dutch Irene Brigade bought there cars, trucks, trailers etc from many sources including civilian. After their landing in Normandy they passed a location were the German army left behind a lot of equipment and the Dutch took what they could use. They took a lot of German tool trailers among other trailers, cars and even some halftracks that were used until the end of the war."
