The register lists here 7 versions with unladen weights from 270 to 710 kg, a gross weight of a constant 3,500 kg, lengths from 7,500 to 8,820 mm and widths from 2,300 to 2,490 mm.
The extremely low unladen weight combined with a comparatively great length makes the MBT range a light low-loader for transporting machinery, vehicles or equipment of modest weight, towable already by smaller tow vehicles while still offering a generous payload reserve up to the gross weight limit. Trailers of this kind are common among trades businesses, small-equipment rental firms and part-time farming operations, where an ordinary car or van trailer does not offer enough loading height.
When buying used, check the condition of the load floor and loading ramps, the operation of the overrun brake, the condition of the axles and tyres, and possible twist in the light chassis from overloading. On the longer versions it is also worth checking for sag and corrosion in the side rails, as well as the condition and locking of the ramps, which wear fastest under frequent loading and unloading.

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.
