The CABBY DE LUXE 472CT is a caravan from CABBY (EU vehicle class O2), registered as built in 1973. It is 4,850 mm long and 1,950 mm wide, weighs 320 kg unladen and has a permitted gross weight of 1,050 kg.
The CABBY DE LUXE 472CT offers a payload of 730 kg – the gap between unladen and permitted gross weight. For a caravan this covers everything that travels along: gas bottles, awning, water, crockery and luggage; retrofitted equipment such as a motor mover or air conditioning reduces the margin further.
Under EU licensing rules, a category B licence allows a combination of towing vehicle and this trailer up to 3,500 kg permitted total mass – so the towing vehicle may weigh at most 2,450 kg. Code 96 on a B licence raises the limit to 4,250 kg (towing vehicle up to 3,200 kg); beyond that a BE licence is required. Being over 750 kg, the trailer must be braked, and the towing vehicle needs a braked towing capacity of at least 1,050 kg.
Among the 353 caravans from CABBY with a stated length, the CABBY DE LUXE 472CT at 4,850 mm is among the shortest (rank 335); the range runs from 3,200 to 9,995 mm. The Finnish vehicle register lists one unit.

The register lists here 344 versions with unladen weights from 180 to 2,100 kg and gross weights from 805 to 2,600 kg. Lengths range from 3,500 to 9,995 mm, widths from 1,900 to 2,520 mm.
With lengths from 3.5 to almost 10 metres, the line-up ranges from compact touring trailers to large family caravans; ranges like this shaped the Nordic caravanning market over the decades, where caravans are traditionally popular because of the long drives to holiday cottages and campsites and the short but intense summer season.
When buying used, damp in the floor and walls, the condition of the roof, windows and seals, corrosion on the chassis and drawbar, and the function of the overrun brake are the key checks. Spares for these older model years are available mainly through specialist caravan restorers in the Nordic region.
