The Vihe 230-600-2AKS-2500J is a car trailer from Vihe (EU vehicle class O2), registered as built in 2000. It is 7,450 mm long and 2,390 mm wide, weighs 800 kg unladen and has a permitted gross weight of 3,500 kg.
Subtracting the unladen weight from the permitted gross weight leaves the Vihe 230-600-2AKS-2500J with a payload of 2,700 kg. More than half of the gross weight is therefore available for cargo.
For the driving licence this means: category B allows combinations up to 3,500 kg, code 96 up to 4,250 kg permitted total mass. With a 3,500 kg trailer too little would remain for the towing vehicle even with code 96 – in practice a BE licence is needed, which covers trailers up to 3,500 kg. Being over 750 kg, the trailer must be braked, and the towing vehicle needs a braked towing capacity of at least 3,500 kg.
Among the 15 car trailers from Vihe with a stated length, the Vihe 230-600-2AKS-2500J at 7,450 mm is in the middle of the range (rank 12); the range runs from 6,100 to 11,650 mm. The Finnish vehicle register lists one unit.
Vihe – other models: Finnish trailers outside the named ranges with dimensions in the type name, axle code AKS and a tandem version, unladen weight 720 to 1,270 kg, gross weight 3,500 kg, up to 11,650 mm length
This page gathers the Vihe trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The Finnish type designations give length and width in millimetres and the gross weight directly in the name, together with the axle code AKS – 2AKS for two, 3AKS for three axles – and the Tandem version for the coupled twin-axle layout. By gross weight the models fall into class O2, at the boundary with lorry trailers.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 720 to 1,270 kg at a gross weight of 3,500 kg. The lengths range from 6,100 to 11,650 mm, the widths from 2,390 to 2,570 mm; with the gross weight nearly constant, the length still varies by more than five metres between models.
The combination of a long load bed and a comparatively low gross weight points to trailers that, in Finnish road traffic, carry boats, machinery or bulky cargo over their full length without exceeding the category B driving licence; the tandem version spreads the load across two coupled axle groups.
On used examples, axle and overrun-brake condition, tyres, rust on the frame and side members, and the lighting function call for checking; on the long versions the frame's flex and the condition of the jockey wheels as well; on the tandem models the equalising suspension between the axles and the wear of its pivot bushes.

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.
