Karrier – collective page of vehicles outside the named ranges: vehicles from the Luton maker (Rootes Group), Bantam, FAH and WAJ models, four- and six-cylinder engines, kerb weight 3,150 to 4,780 kg

Karrier was a British commercial vehicle maker based in Luton, at times linked through the Rootes Group to brands such as Commer and Humber; the marque was known above all for municipal and delivery vehicles such as street sweepers, tippers and light trucks. This collective page covers the Bantam F 322, FAH 322 and WAJ 441 models that the register could not assign to a named range; the Karrier Bantam was a well-known light commercial vehicle of the marque, while FAH and WAJ denote further chassis variants in the register.

The register lists 3 versions here with four to six cylinders, a displacement of 2,200 cm³, kerb weights from 3,150 to 4,780 kg, a gross vehicle weight of 3,500 kg and widths from 2,180 to 2,200 mm.

Vehicles such as the Karrier Bantam were used in Britain chiefly by councils and haulage firms as sturdy tippers, flatbeds and sweepers, competing there with Bedford, Commer and Dodge; the six-cylinder variant covered the heavier versions of the range.

When buying a used historic Karrier commercial vehicle, check corrosion on the frame and cab, the condition of the engine and mechanical gearbox, the function of the brake system and, on municipal bodies, the condition of the hydraulics and body; parts, since production ended as an independent marque, are now only available through specialist classic and commercial vehicle parts suppliers.
