The register lists 3 versions with four-cylinder engines of 2,299 cm³, kerb weights of 2,418 to 3,095 kg at a gross vehicle weight of 4,000 kg, lengths of 6,240 to 7,000 mm and widths of 2,090 to 2,130 mm.
Roelofsen is one of the established horsebox manufacturers in the Netherlands, supplying stables, breeders and competition yards across north-western Europe; the Parados line sits between simple commercial bodies and fully equipped living-quarters horseboxes with their own chassis. The brand is well recognised in the equestrian community and maintains a service network across several countries in the region.
When buying a used vehicle of this kind, check the condition of the floor and partitions in the horse stalls, corrosion of the body frame from moisture, the function of ramps and locking mechanisms, and, on the chassis, the brakes and suspension given the often varying load from the animals. It is also worth checking the tethering points inside the cabin.
