The six-cylinder diesel engine has a displacement of 2,996cc. With a gross vehicle weight of 2,750kg and an unladen weight of 2,210kg, a payload of 540kg remains. A wheelbase of 2,840mm combined with a width of 2,050mm on four wheels results in a compact but heavy off-road vehicle.
With a gross vehicle weight of 2,750kg, the vehicle stays within EU category N1 and can be driven on a category B licence. A six-cylinder diesel of this size in a comparatively compact off-road chassis delivers the torque needed for off-road use and heavy special bodies.
When buying a used off-road vehicle of this kind, the condition of the transfer case and axle differentials matters most, as these come under particular strain during off-road use, along with corrosion on the frame and axle suspension. The six-cylinder diesel's turbocharger and the body's weatherproofing against damp are also worth checking. The rubber mounts of the drive shaft and the condition of the towbar, if fitted, are also worth checking, along with the door seals, which are particularly exposed on a vehicle used off-road.
