The register lists a four-cylinder engine with 4,058 cm³ displacement for this 1978 vehicle. Against an unladen weight of 5,200 kg stands a gross weight of 5,500 kg, giving a payload of around 300 kg. The vehicle is 8,700 mm long and 2,550 mm wide, with a wheelbase of 4,560 mm; it runs on four wheels.

With a gross weight of 5,500 kg, the vehicle falls into EU class N2, the category of medium goods vehicles between 3.5 and 12 tonnes. A payload of only around 300 kg against an overall length of 8,700 mm shows how close a finished motorhome of this size already sits to its gross weight limit when empty; the margin left for water, luggage and occupants is correspondingly tight. The 4,560 mm wheelbase supports the long body without excessive overhang at either end.

Buying a used motorhome like this means checking not only the chassis, engine, brakes and suspension, but above all the condition of the living quarters: damp in the roof and walls, the state of window and door seals, and the gas and water systems. Given the tight payload margin, it is also worth weighing the vehicle with typical travel gear before buying, since exceeding the gross weight limit is easy to do unnoticed on a vehicle this size.
