The 8224 series from MAN includes the 8.224 LLC/530. Production: 2000. The engine delivers 162 kW, with a displacement of 6,870 cm³. The vehicle is 9,500 mm long and 2,550 mm wide. The unladen weight is 5,700 kg. The gross vehicle weight is 8,600 kg. The 8.224 series covers 8 models. 5237 MAN models across 68 series are on record.
The MAN 8.224 LLC/530 is notable for its large wheelbase, which the figure 530 gives in centimetres. At 9,500 mm long the chassis is intended for long, high-volume box bodies, while the low permissible gross weight of 8,600 kg mainly admits light goods such as furniture or packaging. The six-cylinder supplies power reserves for trailer work. The LLC in the code stands for the comfortable cab variant, which eases longer runs.
MAN 8.224 – classic distribution truck of the 8-tonne class with about 224 hp: 162 kW, six-cylinder of 6,870 cm³, gross vehicle weight 8,600 kg, lengths from 6,330 to 9,500 mm
The 8.224 stands in the same MAN type logic for the 8-tonne weight class with a notably strong engine of about 224 hp – a power-to-weight ratio that marks this version out for brisk distribution work and light construction-site use. The versions carried in the register range from the base F through the lighter FL version to chassis with a long wheelbase (L/490) and the version LLC/530.

The register lists here 8 versions with power of throughout 162 kW, a displacement of 6,870 cm³ from six-cylinders, unladen weights from 4,610 to 7,180 kg at a gross vehicle weight of 8,600 kg, lengths from 6,330 to 9,500 mm and widths from 2,300 to 2,600 mm.
With the strong six-cylinder in the 8-tonne class, the 8.224 was suited to tasks where pulling power and payload both mattered, such as tipper and crane bodies in construction and municipal use, where the combination of engine power and comparatively low gross weight is still valued today.
On a used example of these older chassis, rust on the frame and brake lines counts, along with the condition of the clutch and gearbox, the seal of the engine and injection pump, and on tipper or crane versions the hydraulic system and its connections to the chassis; parts are now only available through specialist dealers for classic MAN commercial vehicles.
