Volkswagen Crafter: a class N1 panel-van chassis with twin rear wheels, a 4,490 mm wheelbase and a 3,500 kg gross weight
The register entry lists Volkswagen/lamar as the registration holder for this Crafter, registered in 2018, while the model name unambiguously identifies Volkswagen as the manufacturer. Like several other vehicles of this range in the register, this example also carries six wheels, meaning twin tyres on the rear axle, a sign of a chassis built to carry a heavy body over a long service life.

The four-cylinder diesel engine displaces 1,968 cm³, with a 4,490 mm wheelbase and a 2,400 mm width. Kerb weight of 2,515 kg leaves 985 kg of payload against the 3,500 kg gross weight, a solid figure for a twin-wheel chassis compared with the range's heaviest-bodied versions.
As a class N1 chassis, the Crafter can be driven on a category B licence as long as the gross weight stays under 3.5 t. Twin rear wheels improve tip-over stability under tall box bodies and are the usual technical solution for this wheelbase when carrying a moderately heavy build such as a refrigerated box.
When buying a Crafter chassis with twin rear wheels, it is worth checking the rear tyres for uneven wear, which can point to a bent axle. The dual-mass flywheel and injectors wear under high delivery mileage, and the body mounting points on the chassis should be checked for corrosion and loose bolted joints, especially near the rear overhang.

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.
