Laurell VP – range of heavy semi-trailers: seven versions with kerb weight 8,450 to 12,500 kg, gross weight 30,000 to 45,000 kg, length 12,600 to 14,960 mm
Laurell markets the VP range, a line of heavy semi-trailers. Model names such as VP 3 1-2 KP, VP 4 2-2 SK and VP 5 2-3 KP distinguish several versions of the same platform. The consistent VP designation across all versions shows that this is a single range differentiated across several configuration levels.

The register lists 7 versions with kerb weights from 8,450 to 12,500 kg and gross vehicle weights from 30,000 to 45,000 kg. Lengths run from 12,600 to 14,960 mm and widths from 2,550 to 2,575 mm.
With gross vehicle weights up to 45,000 kg and lengths of nearly 15 metres, the VP range belongs to the heavy multi-axle semi-trailers used in European heavy-haulage and long-distance transport for long, bulky or especially heavy loads. Semi-trailers of this kind are often fitted with several steered and liftable axles to stay manoeuvrable despite their length and weight, and to spare tyre wear under partial load.
When buying used, the frame and axle mountings should be checked for corrosion, cracks and wear, along with the brakes, air suspension and kingpin. On the longer versions it is also worth checking frame torsional stiffness and the condition of the steering axles, along with the lighting and reflective markings required for oversized loads; spare parts for semi-trailers of this size are stocked by the general European commercial-vehicle trade.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
