La Bohème – other models: the collective page of light caravans and folding caravans outside the named types, types 400 B1 to S 3800 D, 850 to 900 kg gross weight
La Bohème is a brand of light caravans and folding caravans found across France and the Benelux countries, with models turning up on the used market mostly from the 1980s and 1990s. This page gathers the types the register could not assign to a named range, from 400 B1 and 400 B2, through 432 B2 and 440 LCE, to the types EURO PL 1370 and S 3800 D. All the models fall within a narrow band of weight and width, pointing to a shared chassis design across this part of the range.

The register lists here 13 versions with unladen weights of 593 to 820 kg, gross weights of 850 to 900 kg and widths of 2,070 to 2,130 mm.
With gross weights just under 900 kg, these La Bohème models are among the lightest caravans in their class and can be towed even by smaller vehicles. The small gap between unladen and gross weight is typical of compact leisure caravans designed for low weight rather than large payload for fittings and luggage. Caravans of this kind usually offered a simple sleeping area and a small kitchenette, built for short weekend trips rather than extended stays.
On a used light caravan of this age, check for damp in the walls, floor and roof, the condition of windows, seals and the drawbar, and the function of the overrun brake. It is also worth checking the canvas or folding roof if the particular example is a folding caravan. Spare parts for a now-rare marque such as La Bohème are mostly found through the French and Benelux used market and general caravan accessory dealers.

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.
