Agree on the table, takes a lot of storage room away as well. I found the kitchen sink used to much of the worktop too. A rectangle sink, would give you more worktop.

I agree with the table being a pain where it is stored, we put ours in the skinny cupboard next to the shower. I'm a big fan of the Bailey's, we have the 2020 Pamplona black edition and just love it.

I have this caravan and I love it. The table stores in the cupboard beneath the wine rack and slots in perfectly and there is even a plastic lever to secure it. Indeed last summer we also easily stored a second outdoor table in the same cupboard. My main bugbear is the tiny sink in the bathroom.

To be fair, if you use the table, just store it in the awning if you have one whilst onsite, then you're only taking it out and putting it back once.

Bailey always provide good storage and practical features, then they go and put the table under the rear bed. Was the TV bracket missing ( holes where it should be) or is the shelf the tv plinth?

You are correct. Whoever in Bailey thought putting the table under the bed does not go caravanning. Like whoever in the caravan world thought putting a bin on the front door has no brains and why you have all that storage compartment and little carrying weight pass. Most caravans on the road must be overweight. That’s my Victor Meldrew bit.

Hi mark Where do caravan dealers get there px prices from I've just been given a ridiculously low px quote for my van I think it is anyway. Not by you but another dealer. just wondered if some dealers use the dartboard method or is there a glasses guide like cars
@thecaravanplace Жыл бұрын
There is a glass guide which gives a trade value and a retail value, which on most caravans is very close to what dealers will give. BUT we all have some models that we just don't seem to sell, so then it's valued on how we feel it about it. Email me on thecaravanplace@aol.com with the details as if ur not too far away we will buy it, or at least give u an idea what it should be worth.

Have Bailey sorted out their water ingress through the roof strap and the wet floors underneath in the corners? We were looking at a new Cartegena a few years ago in the rain, water already leaking through the roof. " a lot if them do that" said the salesman, "we'll fix it before it goes out" so bought a Swift instead.

Missing t v bracket. You said they stole it?? No they did not. If they own it before you its there's not yours. If they remove it its there's. If you bought it minus the t v. Bracket that's your fault ?? You should negotiate a new deal to cover the missing tv bracket. Or knocked em down in price?? Mmm one thing I do like, and that is nitpicking???
