MAN 8.150 – 7.49/8-tonne class truck with a 150hp engine: six-cylinder from 4.58 to 6.87 litres, FAE 4X4 all-wheel-drive version, unladen weight 4.89 to 8 tonnes
The 8.150 follows the same MAN type logic: the 8 marks the weight class, the 150 the engine output of about 150hp, measured here at 110 to 114kW. The 7.49/395 version explicitly states the actual gross-weight class of that variant at 7.49 tonnes; F and FL denote forward-control cabs, FAE 4X4 the all-wheel-drive version. MAN was formed in 1908 from the merger of Maschinenfabrik Augsburg with the Nuremberg-based Maschinenbau-Actien-Gesellschaft; within the M90 generation the 8.150 formed the lightest weight class.

The register lists 5 versions at 110 to 114kW, six-cylinder engines from 4,580 to 6,871cc displacement, unladen weights from 4,885 to 8,020kg, gross vehicle weights from 7,490 to 8,600kg, lengths from 5,800 to 8,800mm and widths from 2,300 to 2,450mm.
In the light 8-tonne class the 8.150 covered both urban distribution work with flatbed or box bodies and, in the 4X4 version, municipal and farm-adjacent off-road use. Trades businesses and municipalities valued the 8.150 for its tight turning circle in urban traffic, while the 4X4 version was used in winter road-service and forestry work.
Buying used, check the frame for rust, the condition of the clutch and gearbox, on the FAE 4X4 version the transfer case and axle drive, the brakes, and – depending on the engine fitted – the difference between the smaller 4.58-litre and the larger 6.87-litre unit; spare parts run through the MAN network. The tightness of the cab mounts and the condition of the tow hitch and body are also worth checking.

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.
