The register lists 2 versions here with eight-cylinder engines, kerb weights from 3,800 to 4,010 kg, gross vehicle weights from 4,620 to 4,626 kg, a length of 7,070 mm, and widths from 2,380 to 2,390 mm.
At just over 7 metres long and a gross weight a little above 4,600 kg, these vehicles sit at the boundary between light and heavy commercial vehicles; the small number of versions carried points to a narrow programme within this weight class, sharing an almost identical eight-cylinder engine. Vehicles of this configuration were often used for special tasks requiring a high towing capacity or as a base for bespoke bodies, as suggested by the comparatively powerful engine.
For a used example, check the frame and axles for corrosion, clutch and gearbox condition, brake system operation, and the compatibility of any fitted body with the gross vehicle weight; as both types are carried in only small numbers, it is worth checking the chassis number against the values recorded in the register before purchase; parts availability for the eight-cylinder drivetrain should be checked before purchase.
