Hobby O2-class caravans – Fockbek-built touring caravans registered as trailers up to 3.5 t gross weight: numeric series/floorplan codes, trim lines from De Luxe to Prestige, weights from 240 to 2,240 kg
Hobby-Wohnwagenwerk, based in Fockbek near Rendsburg, is one of the largest independently run German caravan makers. The “Class O2” collector page lists every Hobby model recorded in the registration data from the Netherlands and Finland as an EU Class O2 trailer – a trailer with a gross weight of 0.75 to 3.5 tonnes. Hobby's type designations traditionally follow a numeric code for the series and floorplan, combined with trim lines such as De Luxe, Excellent, Exclusive, Prestige, Classic and Elegance, each of which appears in the register as its own model name.

The register lists 1,080 versions with unladen weights from 240 to 2,240 kg, gross weights from 800 to 2,500 kg and widths from 1,630 to 2,560 mm; length figures are available for 311 of the vehicles and range from 3,350 to 9,500 mm.
Alongside Tabbert, Knaus, Bürstner and Dethleffs, Hobby is among the highest-volume German caravan brands, positioned mainly in the mid-price segment. The used market is correspondingly large and liquid, supported by a network of independent caravan workshops built up over decades for repair and servicing outside the dealer network.
When buying used, check for moisture at the floor, wall and roof joints, the condition of window and roof-hatch seals, and a valid gas-system inspection. The hitch coupling and brakes, including the handbrake cable, belong on the list too, as does tyre age under the six-year rule regardless of tread depth. Tap the floor panel for soft spots and check the 12 V and 230 V electrics; parts for older series are mostly still sourced through independent caravan workshops, while current models are covered by the Hobby dealer network.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
