For this vehicle the register lists a kerb weight of 9,825 kg and a gross vehicle weight of 11,750 kg. The vehicle is 8,260 mm long and 2,550 mm wide, with six wheels and a wheelbase of 4,070 mm, and reaches a top speed of 90 km/h.

With a difference of only 1,925 kg between kerb weight and gross vehicle weight, a comparatively tight payload margin remains, pointing to a body that is already heavy in itself. Because the gross vehicle weight sits just under 12 tonnes, a category C licence was required for this vehicle once the 7.5-tonne threshold is crossed. Six wheels on three axles spread the high gross weight over a larger contact area than a two-axle vehicle of the same class.

For a used example, check the frame and all three axles for corrosion and wear, the condition of the air brake system, and the clutch and gearbox of the drivetrain. Given the tight payload margin, it is also worth checking the actual load carried, and depending on the body, its seals and the condition of fitted components, as well as even tyre wear across all six wheels.
