Magirus-Deutz FM – the cab-over truck with air-cooled Deutz diesel: four- to six-cylinder, 4.1 to 9.5-litre displacement, gross vehicle weight up to 14 tonnes
Magirus-Deutz was a truck maker based in Ulm, known for air-cooled V-configuration Deutz diesel engines that needed no cooling water; in 1975 the company became part of the Iveco merger. The FM range was a cab-over truck for the medium weight segment; model names such as FM 130 D 7 FA or FM 170 D 11 FA state the payload or weight class, the diesel engine and the number of axles or frame variant. The company name goes back to Conrad Dietrich Magirus, who founded a fire-equipment factory in Ulm in 1864 from which the Magirus truck maker later emerged; the Deutz suffix came from the engine partnership with the Cologne-based firm Deutz.

The register lists 12 versions here with four- to six-cylinder engines of 4,058 to 9,506 cc, kerb weights of 3,211 to 13,180 kg, gross vehicle weights of 3,500 to 14,000 kg, lengths of 5,700 to 9,600 mm and widths of 2,130 to 2,600 mm.
The air-cooled Deutz engines made Magirus-Deutz trucks immune to frost damage and radiator failure, which made them popular with fire brigades and on building sites; the FM range sat in the medium market segment alongside Mercedes-Benz and MAN. The distinctive sound of the air-cooled V-engines made Magirus-Deutz vehicles, especially the marque's fire engines, known well beyond Germany.
On surviving Magirus-Deutz vehicles, key points are the condition of the air-cooled cylinders and cooling fan, corrosion on the frame and cab mountings, and the brakes and steering; parts today come mainly through classic-vehicle specialists and fire-engine preservation clubs.
