We changed ours last year, 2004 bailey pagent vendee as our non retiring pressents to ourselves.
No point a caravan you cannot afford to use.

Having had sterling service from it went looking for another Bailey. Sadly a very disappointing experiance, while spec on paper is good biuld quality is frankly atrocious. In my view biult in obsolescence is a short time span away as there is no way new ones will last as older ones have. A 6mm gap between the draw bottom and front on a brand new van is not good quality control, pocket doors that have no bottom rail and hence flap about will not last long.

This was not just 1 rouge van, it was multiple vans at multiple dealers.

I looked at other makes and went with a coachman vip, biuld quality in a different league and far better than the extra £1000 would suggest. Everything is biult properly. Yes it's a heavier van but it will see us out.
