MAN 10.153 – classic distribution truck of the 10-tonne class with about 153 hp: 112 to 114 kW, four-cylinder of 4,580 cm³, gross vehicle weights from 10,000 to 10,500 kg, lengths from 7,150 to 8,600 mm
MAN Truck & Bus, headquartered in Munich, has belonged to the commercial-vehicle group Traton since Volkswagen's takeover in 2011. In the classic two-part MAN type designation, the first number gives the nominal gross vehicle weight in tonnes and the second the engine power in hp; the 10.153 thus stands for a 10-tonner with about 153 hp. The versions carried in the register range from the base 10.153 F through the dual designation 10.(153,163) for structurally identical chassis in two power steps, to chassis with different wheelbases, given as an extra number after the slash (F/335, F/425, FL/490).

The register lists here 8 versions, 2 of them with recorded power of 112 to 114 kW, with a displacement of 4,580 cm³ from four-cylinders, unladen weights from 4,450 to 7,060 kg at gross vehicle weights from 10,000 to 10,500 kg, lengths from 7,150 to 8,600 mm and widths from 2,350 to 2,540 mm.
Trucks of this class and generation stood in medium-duty distribution work and on construction sites in direct competition with the Mercedes-Benz NG and Volvo F7, and for decades formed the backbone of smaller haulage and municipal operations.
On a used example of these older chassis, rust on the frame and brake lines counts above all, along with the condition of the clutch and mechanical gearbox, the seal of the engine and injection pump, and any fitted body; parts for the classic MAN range are now only available through specialist dealers.

What to check before buying
