Deutz – other models: the collective page of the 814 and D30 from the Magirus-Deutz plant in Ulm, two-cylinder engines of 1.7 litres, gross weight 2,000 kg
This page gathers models from the Deutz brand under the type designations 814 and D30, which the register could not assign to a named series of its own. Deutz commercial vehicles were built at the Ulm plant under the Magirus-Deutz name, after Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz merged with the Ulm truck maker Magirus. A typical feature of Deutz engines of the period was air cooling, which allowed operation without cooling water or antifreeze.

The register lists 2 versions here with an output of 20 kW, a displacement of 1,700 cm³ from two-cylinder engines, kerb weights from 1,365 to 1,846 kg, a gross vehicle weight of 2,000 kg, a length of 3,040 mm and widths from 1,620 to 1,950 mm.
With an air-cooled two-cylinder engine and a gross weight of 2,000 kg, these versions rank among the brand's smaller commercial vehicles, used in agricultural and commercial transport for light loads, while the large Magirus-Deutz trucks with a considerably higher gross weight covered the brand's heavy segment.
For a used example with this air-cooled Deutz engine, check the condition of the cylinder cooling fins and fan, the tightness of the injection system, the condition of the clutch and brake system, and corrosion on the frame and load bed; parts run through the Deutz parts trade and workshops specialising in air-cooled engines.
