The register lists here 3 versions with unladen weights from 1,100 to 2,020 kg, gross weights from 2,700 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,850 to 1,880 mm; recorded lengths run from 4,800 to 4,980 mm.

With gross weights of 2.7 to 3.5 tonnes, all versions fall into the braked trailer class towed behind vans and stronger cars. Lengths of around 4.8 to 5 metres and widths of up to 1.88 metres point to medium-sized platform or box bodies. Such trailers often serve as a multi-purpose solution for garden, removal or small commercial loads towed behind vans with a matching rated towing capacity, with cargo volume and weatherproofing as additional factors on closed bodies.

On a used example, axle and wheel-bearing condition, the function of the overrun brake and its linkage, rust on frame and drawbar, and the state of lighting, plug, tyres and rims all count. On closed bodies the tightness of roof and doors as well; parts for such brands usually run through independent trailer workshops.
