Arbgem DB/HHF – other models: light Mercedes-Benz L/LN series trucks, L206, L306 and L406 types, 1.6 to 3.1 tonnes kerb weight, up to 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight
This collective page covers vehicles of the L 206, L 306 and L 406 types, as Mercedes-Benz built them in the 1970s and 1980s as light trucks of the T1 range. In the type designation, the first digits denote the payload class in tonnes and the second and third digits the engine output; the DG suffix marks an equipment or drivetrain variant, while the plain L207 designation points to an earlier version without that suffix.

The register lists four variants here with four-cylinder engines of 1,767 to 2,180 cm³ displacement, kerb weights from 1,560 to 3,080 kg, gross vehicle weights from 2,500 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,770 to 2,100 mm.
The Mercedes-Benz T1 range, often called the Düsseldorf transporter, formed the backbone of the brand's light commercial segment for two decades and was built in numerous body variants – from panel van to flatbed – before being replaced by the Sprinter. The types listed here, with payload classes from 2 to 4 tonnes, covered the mid and upper segment of this range and were used by both trades businesses and smaller haulage firms.
When buying a used vehicle of this type, corrosion damage to the frame and load bed, the condition of the four-cylinder diesel engine, and the brakes and clutch matter most; parts for the T1 range remain available through specialist classic and commercial vehicle parts dealers.
