The register lists a kerb weight of 14,200 kg and a gross vehicle weight of 15,150 kg for this model. The vehicle has six wheels, a wheelbase of 3,990 mm and is 2,430 mm wide.

With a kerb weight of 14,200 kg against a gross vehicle weight of only 15,150 kg, this vehicle has only a small payload margin left, pointing to a body that is itself already very heavy, such as a crane, a pump or other permanently fitted equipment rather than exchangeable cargo carried on a flat load bed for a haulage firm. In the heavy N3 class, this vehicle requires a category C licence.

For a used example, check the chassis and axles for corrosion and wear under the high axle load, the condition of the clutch and gearbox, air brake system operation and, depending on the body, the condition of the hydraulics and attachment; given the small payload margin, it is worth carefully checking the actual axle loads before buying.
