Gova – further truck models: the collection page beyond the named ranges, four-cylinder 3,780 cm³ engines, 3,369 to 6,200 kg kerb weight, up to 8,800 kg gross vehicle weight
This page brings together Gova trucks not assigned to any named range. Model designations range from single letters such as C, E, H and HZ to the MG 8000, 9000 and 10000 series, whose numbers indicate the weight class of the chassis. The vehicles on this collection page therefore belong to the light and medium-duty truck segment.

The register lists nine versions, all with four-cylinder engines displacing 3,780 cm³. Kerb weights range from 3,369 to 6,200 kg, gross vehicle weights from 5,800 to 8,800 kg and widths from 2,130 to 2,200 mm, with a recorded length of 9,250 mm.
Vehicles of this weight class were mainly used in regional distribution transport, on construction sites and for municipal bodywork such as tippers or box bodies, putting them in competition with the medium-duty ranges of the large European commercial vehicle makers.
It is worth checking the frame and leaf springs for fatigue cracks, since vehicles of this weight class often worked in continuous service with changing bodywork. The engine and clutch should be checked for oil leaks and wear, and the brake system for even performance across all axles. Parts for the engine and chassis can be sourced through specialist commercial-vehicle restoration workshops, while body panels are generally only available as reproductions.

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.
