Marquardt – other models: trailers with the model names Comfort, Galant, Grande, Mars 2 and Turnier, unladen weights from 660 to 1,580 kg, gross weights from 1,100 to 3,500 kg
This page gathers the trailers of the brand Marquardt the register could not assign to a named range. The model names Comfort, Derby 0, Galant, Grande, Mars 2, Mars 2 Poly, Quattro, Stier 2K and Turnier stand alongside the codes M1 De Luxe and M5; the marketing-style names follow the pattern widespread for car trailers in the 1970s and 1980s.

The register lists here 12 versions with unladen weights from 660 to 1,580 kg, gross weights from 1,100 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,840 to 2,420 mm; as length the register gives 4,700 mm.
With unladen weights under two tonnes and gross weights up to 3,500 kg, these models belong to EU classes O1 and O2 of car trailers, towed with an ordinary driving licence, category B or BE, and used for haulage, removal or leisure purposes; the variety of names from Comfort to Turnier shows how strongly simple car trailers were marketed as a product in their own right at the time.
On a used trailer, the frame for rust and distortion, axles and wheel bearings, the overrun brake device and brake system on the braked versions, the sides and load floor for wear, and lighting, the number-plate holder and the condition of the coupling head and jockey wheel all count; on the older models the condition of the leaf springs and the side-panel hinges is also worth checking.

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.
