Hi Andy, nice setting for a video chat. Lots of interesting things about to happen with Eldiss and I'll be interested to see your Coachman and Swift reviews. Hope Eldiss let you video their old vans when you there. Good news about more book work coming your way. Many thanks for the shout out.

Me to hope Elddis come up with the goods - and a chance to look at their old tourer too - hope alls going well all my best wishes to you both

[@nigelburland187]

Hi Andy, great update as usual. Have to say I admire your confidence on likely future of Elddis (or EHG or whatever they are currently called). As you know Elddis are fairly local to me and there is talk that Thor may just pull the plug and sell off the current factory site for housing _ I hope not and that they will just move to another site - the current factory has never been ideal anyway, I believe it started out as a crisp factory or something similar.

[@caravanindustryexpertandyjenk]

That would be sad news - the factory was a oil dist ? I went as they moved from Delves lane in 2000 I think - I heard that they have a new range of motorhomes which Swift told me sound a good range so lets see - I am over there in a few weeks Nigel

I have never been a unicorn fan . the external trims , colours from 2010 or 11 when they first come out. im not anti bailey im still using my gt 60 which i still think is a great looking caravan

[@caravanindustryexpertandyjenk]

Hi Paul - maybe were both biased ha ha - but your right!!! Old Bailey magic has gone and the Ranger GT60 took some beating for value lightweight and spec

[@conrad8906]

Hi Andy Great vlog again, your thinking always interests me. I've had a Bailey Phoenix brand new about 2 yrs ago, got rid after 6 months, terrible build quality, costly mistake, I will stick with Swift. Look forward to the Motorhome book launch. Going looking at an OMAR Park home soon, the wife Julie is excited about it. Conrad.

[@caravanindustryexpertandyjenk]

Oh sorry to hear that - on OMAR I was at the park home show last weekend and they had a large stand as always and had some cracking park homes on show as did Pathfinder to. Let me know how you get on at Omar.

[@conrad8906]

We will. Going to Kinderton Park In Middlewich next Sat, resedential Park home site, looking forward to it. Out in the Bolero this weekend Southport CAMC sit.

Hi Andy, again I find myself agreeing with you about family layouts. We recently traded our 2017 Pursuit 570/6, a great bunk bed van which we used loads over 7 years. The dealer has it for sale for £2,000 less than we paid for it 7 years ago. I’d add I’m happy with the trade in deal they gave us too. I’m guessing it will sell very quickly and I’ll keep tabs on their website and update you 👍 Anyway really appreciate your vlogs and industry insights. Andy Z

[@caravanindustryexpertandyjenk]

Hi Andy - there is a lack of decent family layouts and interesting to know what you traded in for - good family models will still sell especially lightweight models - well done for the deal and thank you for letting me know and for watching.

[@andyzee3956]

A new Pegasus Grande Ancona with twin bunks and big side dinette. It’s a proper tardis and brilliant layout for families.

[@caravanindustryexpertandyjenk]

@@andyzee3956 Ah yes it is spacious a big van ideal for families wanting space and fixed bunks - let me know how it goes and thanks for getting back
