Home-Car – other models: the collective page of car trailers outside the named ranges, from Racer 35 to Racer 65 KFU, 350 to 1,510 kg unladen weight, 1,000 to 2,000 kg permitted gross weight
This page gathers the Home-Car trailers the register could not assign to a named range, mostly models of the Racer line from Racer 35-353H through Racer 45 Spirit and Racer 48 to Racer 65 KFU. The type names combine the body size with a letter-number code for internal dimensions and equipment, for example 493H-RC48KMU or 526H-RC49UE.

The register lists here 30 versions with unladen weights from 350 to 1,510 kg, permitted gross weights from 1,000 to 2,000 kg, lengths from 5,455 to 8,265 mm and widths from 2,150 to 2,490 mm.
With lengths of over 8 m and widths around 2.5 m, the Racer models are designed as enclosed car and race-car transporters that carry vehicles protected from the weather to the track or an event, clearly setting them apart from the open car trailer. With gross weights of 1 to 2 t, the Racer models sit within the range still towable on a standard category B driving licence with a suitable tow vehicle.
When buying used in this enclosed class, check the roof, side walls and doors for leaks, plus the ramp and load-lashing points, axles, brake system and lighting; as the bodies are usually aluminium, it is also worth checking for dents and corrosion at the joints with the steel frame. On the long versions over 8 m also check the frame for sagging and the ramp mechanism for smooth operation.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
