MAN 10.223
9 models in this series
MAN 10.223 – 10-tonne class truck with a 223hp engine: 6,870cc six-cylinder, F and FL cabs, LAEC-4X4 all-wheel-drive version, unladen weight 4.75 to 7.8 tonnes
In MAN's type numbering the first figure marks the gross-vehicle-weight class in tonnes and the second the engine output in horsepower; the 10.223 thus denotes the 10-tonne class with about 223hp, matching the measured output here of 161.5 to 164kW. F and FL mark the forward-control cab variants, LAEC-4X4 the off-road all-wheel-drive version, and the suffixes from /300 to /460 distinguish chassis with different wheelbases. MAN was formed in 1908 from the merger of Maschinenfabrik Augsburg with the Nuremberg-based Maschinenbau-Actien-Gesellschaft, building light and medium trucks of this generation in parallel under the L2000 and M2000 names.

The register lists 9 versions with 161.5 to 164kW, a displacement of 6,870cc, unladen weights from 4,750 to 7,800kg, gross vehicle weights from 10,000 to 10,500kg, lengths from 5,350 to 8,320mm and widths from 2,300 to 2,600mm.
In the 10-tonne class the 10.223 covered distribution work, tipper and construction-site duty, and – in the all-wheel-drive version – municipal and farm-adjacent off-road use; it competed against the Mercedes 1017/1019-class trucks.
Buying used, check the frame and axle mounts for rust on the longer-wheelbase chassis, the condition of the clutch and gearbox, on 4X4 versions the transfer case and differential locks, the brakes, and – depending on the body – the tipper hydraulics or tail-lift; spare parts run through the MAN network. The condition of the tow hitch on the longer-wheelbase chassis and the tightness of the cab mounts are also worth checking.
