VFW-Fokker – other models: the collective register page for trailers outside the named ranges, designations from the Dutch vehicle register, 596 to 890 kg kerb weight, gross weight up to 1,100 kg
This page brings together VFW-Fokker trailers that the register could not assign to a named range. Model designations such as 400 Q UITV N, 450 LQ UITV.L and 500 W UITV. N follow the structure typical of Dutch vehicle registration data, combining a numeric code with a version abbreviation; the spelling varies for the same base type – VFW 400 WL UITV L, V.F.W. 400 UITV L and 400 WL UITV.L.

The register lists 27 versions here with kerb weights from 596 to 890 kg and gross vehicle weights from 850 to 1,100 kg. Widths range from 2,040 to 2,160 mm, pointing to consistently wide trailers within a narrow weight band.
With a gross weight around 1,000 kg and a uniformly large width, these trailers belong to the light general-purpose class that can be towed behind a car on an ordinary category B licence. The Dutch origin of the register data places the models in that country's used market for site and general-purpose trailers, where such compact box trailers commonly change hands between small businesses and private owners.
When buying used, check the condition of the tow eye and coupling head, play in the axles and suspension, tyre condition including the spare wheel, and corrosion on the chassis and side panels. On the wider versions, also check the side panel mounts and the lighting working across the full width, plus the completeness of the Dutch registration documents.

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.
