The SOLIFER ARTIC 520 TBR is a caravan from SOLIFER (EU vehicle class O2), built from 2007 to 2009. It is 6,980 mm long and 2,395 mm wide, weighs 1,070 kg unladen and has a permitted gross weight of 1,350 kg.
Payload for the SOLIFER ARTIC 520 TBR, i.e. permitted gross weight minus unladen weight, is 280 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 2,150 kg. Code 96 on a B licence raises the limit to 4,250 kg (towing vehicle up to 2,900 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 1,350 kg.
Among the 416 caravans from SOLIFER with a stated length, the SOLIFER ARTIC 520 TBR at 6,980 mm is in the middle of the range (rank 265); the range runs from 2,900 to 9,320 mm. The Finnish vehicle register lists 2 units.
Solifer – caravans up to 3.5 t (class O2): the Nordic caravan brand from compact two-metre to large nine-metre models, unladen weights from 200 to 1,790 kg

The register lists here 408 versions with unladen weights from 200 to 1,790 kg and gross weights from 850 to 2,000 kg. Lengths range from 2,900 to 9,320 mm, widths from 1,880 to 2,550 mm.
The wide span from small two-metre to large nine-metre caravans shows that Solifer, over the decades, built both simple touring trailers and comfortable family and winter caravans for the Nordic market, where insulation and heating matter more than in central Europe because of the climate.
When buying used, damp in the floor and walls, the condition of the roof, windows and seals, and corrosion on the chassis and drawbar are the key checks, with the condition of insulation and heating an additional point on the winter models. Spares for these older model years are available mainly through specialist caravan restorers in the Nordic region.
