The Dethleffs CAMPER 560 SK LIFESTYLE is a caravan from Dethleffs (EU vehicle class O2), registered as built in 2004. It is 7,950 mm long and 2,500 mm wide, weighs 1,340 kg unladen and has a permitted gross weight of 1,600 kg.
Payload for the Dethleffs CAMPER 560 SK LIFESTYLE, i.e. permitted gross weight minus unladen weight, is 260 kg. 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 1,900 kg. Code 96 on a B licence raises the limit to 4,250 kg (towing vehicle up to 2,650 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 1,600 kg.
Among the 622 caravans from Dethleffs with a stated length, the Dethleffs CAMPER 560 SK LIFESTYLE at 7,950 mm is in the middle of the range (rank 158); the range runs from 3,712 to 11,493 mm. The Finnish vehicle register lists one unit.
Dethleffs caravans up to 3.5 t (class O2) – from the inventor of the German series-built caravan from Isny im Allgäu, since 1931: ranges from Beduin and Nomad to Camper and Exclusiv, unladen weights 270 to 2,090 kg
Dethleffs of Isny im Allgäu is regarded as the inventor of the German series-built caravan: in 1931 founder Arist Dethleffs built the first mass-produced caravan, long before camping became a mass pursuit. The family company shaped the German caravanning industry for decades and has belonged to the Erwin Hymer Group since the late 1990s, which has itself been part of the American Thor Industries group since 2018/2019. The model programme spans post-war classics to modern ranges and carries names such as Beduin, Nomad, Aero Style, Camper and Exclusiv, as well as the Arist range named after the founder. The trailers gathered here fall into EU vehicle class O2, covering trailers from 0.75 to 3.5 tonnes gross weight – at Dethleffs, practically all of them caravans towed behind a car.

The register lists here 655 versions with unladen weights from 270 to 2,090 kg, gross weights from 900 to 2,800 kg, lengths from 3,712 to 9,414 mm (recorded for 650 models) and widths from 1,155 to 2,590 mm.
Alongside Tabbert, Hobby, Knaus and Fendt, Dethleffs is one of the most traditional German caravan brands, and with its wide programme from compact campers to family-sized floor plans it covers almost every caravan category.
On used caravans, damp at windows, roof vents and the drawbar box, the condition of the chassis (usually AL-KO), axle and overrun brake, the gas system and its inspection sticker, furniture and upholstery, and tyre age — often older than the tread would suggest, given long periods of standing — all count; parts run through the Dethleffs and Hymer service network.
