With a gross vehicle weight of 6,373 kg, it falls into EU class N2, the medium-duty commercial vehicles between 3,500 and 12,000 kg.

The V8 diesel engine has a displacement of 7,269 cm³. At a kerb weight of 5,990 kg, payload comes to around 380 kg for cargo and occupants. Overall length is 9,140 mm, wheelbase 5,100 mm and width 2,550 mm. Four wheels on two axles match the construction typical of Class C chassis, without twin rear tyres.
A vehicle in this weight class requires an EU category C1 driving licence, covering vehicles between 3,500 and 7,500 kg. The V8 diesel of just over 7.3 litres was common in North American chassis of this production era and supplied the torque needed for a roughly 9.1-metre motorhome body with an over-cab alcove, a bathroom module and water tanks.
For a used example of this roughly 25-year-old Class C motorhome, check for damp and soft spots in the cabin floor and walls, the condition of the chassis, axles and brake system, the seals around the alcove and windows, and the age and condition of the gas system, water tanks and leisure battery. For a diesel engine of this age, also check the condition of the injection pump and turbocharger.
