Saxas Nutzfahr Werdau – other models: collective page of MKD special bodies on Ford Transit and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis, 2.0 to 2.3-litre diesel, 3.5t gross vehicle weight
This page gathers special bodies with the MKD type designation, which the coachbuilder Saxas Nutzfahrzeuge of Werdau in Saxony fits to Ford Transit and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis, and which the register could not assign to a named range. The running number in the type name, such as MKD 43, distinguishes the individual build stages, while the letter suffix denotes the particular body or equipment variant. Such conversions in Germany generally require an individual vehicle inspection or a general type approval for the body before registration.

The register lists here 6 versions with 1,995 to 2,287cc displacement from four cylinders, 2,385 to 2,840kg unladen weight against a constant gross vehicle weight of 3,500kg, and 2,100 to 2,550mm width.
As a coachbuilder in the 3.5-tonne segment, Saxas serves with its MKD conversions a market in which series chassis from major manufacturers are fitted with specialised box bodies for authorities, municipalities and businesses, without having to develop a chassis of its own.
When buying used, check for rust where the series chassis meets the special body, the tightness of the body and roof skin, the condition of the Ford or Mercedes drivetrain, and the function of retrofitted electrics; chassis parts run through the respective brand dealers, body parts directly through Saxas.
