Hi Rumple, we have the same outfit as yourself, and having just spent the last ten days away, I found having the table up permanently restricted us, so it was a case of using it when necessary.  Also found no where to put the wine glass unless you was sitting along side either window.   Any useful advice would be most appreciated, great bed though.

Would like to compare likes and dislikes on this one.

Hello Suzy, sorry I haven't replied sooner but I've been very busy workwise. reference the table permanently out....I only suggested that to snifferty because I assumed (possibly wrongly so) as he was studying, he was on his lonesome....

As for comparisons, yes it would be interesting but I think we should do that on a seperate thread

As wizard says bailey 460/4 you wont go far wrong. Great van.

Hi... Just bought a 2003 Avondale Rialto 555

Fixed bed.... very similar to the below Bailey layout, only better quality, and much bigger

Well impressed & best of our 4 vans we've had for working layout / quality !!!

Hi Tiff 
How much I paid,.... got a real bargain buying private on Ebay.......

You gotta look around, and obviously be careful....

I think I dropped really lucky with an elderly couple who had hardly used it....To buy from a dealership would have cost me £11k +++..... Like I said.... I got a real bargain

Found no problems with any of the quality... it easily compares with most of the vans I saw at this years Caravan Show in its price range,....  looks the part, and is a very practical design.... its my fourth van in 8 years, & honestly believe we got the right design for us

Cheers

The bargains are out there to be had - just make sure that the being had doesn't happen to you.  Our 2004 Swift Challenger 550 LSE cost £11,000,  Highbridge have the same exact model - they call it 2005 and want £12,995 for it.  We have a number of caravan retaillers within a close distance.  We went round them until we found a caravan which we liked, at a price we thought we could manage, from people we believe we can trust.  This firm, though small, offer an after sales service which would be hard to fault.  They are now in a position to turn service jobs away, thus concentrationg on their own caravan purchasers needs.

You haven't said where you live - north, south?  I'm certain that we can supply you with trustworthy retaillers all over the country.
