The register lists 118 versions here with a kerb weight of 340 to 2,840 kg and a gross weight of 1,000 to 4,266 kg. Widths range from 1,560 to 3,000 mm, lengths from 3,730 to 8,760 mm.

The bulk of the collector page falls in the O2 class up to 3.5 tonnes, supplemented by a few versions just above that limit, which already require an extended driving entitlement. Trailers of this range are used above all in the trade haulage of machinery, materials and goods where different towed weights are needed.

When buying used, check the frame and drawbar for rust and cracks, and the overrun brake and its linkage for correct function. Axles, wheel bearings, tyre age and the lighting system belong to the standard check, as does matching the data plate and gross weight to the registration; wear parts for common axles and couplings are available from independent trailer dealers. The condition of the mudguards, support legs and lashing rings is also worth a look, since these parts take the brunt of everyday loading and unloading.
