COUVREUR Other models

The register lists here 3 versions with unladen weights from 610 to 810 kg, gross weights from 1,500 to 2,700 kg and widths from 2,210 to 2,320 mm.

With gross weights of 1.5 to 2.7 tonnes, all three versions fall into the braked trailer class towed behind vans and stronger cars for loads needing more deck space. The width of over two metres at a comparatively moderate unladen weight points to open platform bodies or ones with low side panels.

On a used example, axle and wheel-bearing condition, the function of the overrun brake and its linkage, rust on frame and drawbar, and the state of tyres and lighting all count. On open platform bodies it is also worth checking the load bed itself, the lashing points and the condition of any side panels. It is also worth checking the condition of jockey wheels and prop stands, and, on an open platform fitted with a tarpaulin, the state of the cover itself and its straps. Parts for a brand with such a small range usually come through independent trailer workshops.
