Pageants are still on Bailey's price list (probably for the benefit of dealers who still have them in stock), I would discuss the issue with the insurance company & ask what they would payout in the event of a total loss if the insured van is no longer in production. As 7' 6" was a big selling point of the Pageant S7 then if you make clear that a narrower van would not be suitable then if they are willing to take the increased premium for the higher insured value then they should pay out based on it.

I couldn't have put this better myself, Zafiral.  Michael's link confirms that Bailey have, in fact, ceased production of the Senator 6, but after searching the website further I could find no statement to that effect about the Pageant........ yet!

Other than the width problems for driveways etc, there is of course some weight savings to be had on the narrower vans, which with the need to reduce fuel consumpttion could be important to some.

I certainly would not want an 8' van if they become more common.
