Bit of a strange request, but we recently bought a 2006 Bailey Ranger 500/5 with the front chest of drawers. However we are both tall and found the bed too small with it and would prefer the wrap around seats. We have carefully removed the chest and it is safely stored in our garage. Is there any chance anyone has the wrap around option and would like to swap the necessary bits? We are in Leeds but travel around a bit.
Why have you not got the wrap arounds. I thought the chest was an extra so they should have kept the seating. We have the same in our Bordeaux but the previous owner kept hold of the seating so that it could be put back.

I'm not sure the chest was an extra in the Ranger in 2006. But I could be wrong - in any case, we don't have them, and as far as I can figure there must be a piece of wood also needed to cover the hole but we can always make one of those!
what colour is your seating and what kind of wood is the chest made of also what colour is wood.have a bailey pageant will the chest fit if so would be interseted. will travel.
Sorry I haven't replied yet - no chance to get out there and check things out. David Parsons - sorry my profile was out of date - we are now in Leeds not Shrewsbury - a bit farther from you! (But very near the lovely Dales!)
Thanks Diane for the info re the ebay ones - too much for us I'm afraid after paying more for the van than we planned! That's why we'd like to swap.
Hi Sarah, could you find out the peole who supply the fabric to Bailey , I,m sure I read somewhere it's a company in Nottingham, maybe if you are handy on the machine you could make some. There is also a place in derbyshire that do the inside cusions for them, again not sure of the company but if you google a few discriptive words I'm sure it will come up.
Ours has the wrap around seating and when we got it new we had the front box put in as an extra but we have found we prefer the cusions back so we are left with a front box. Suppose we could sell it but not sure if we may change our minds at some point.
Thank you for all the suggestions - I guess we will arrange to have some made or find the money to buy some secondhand but a swap seems like a good thing to try first.
So I have mastered the technology (I think!) and here are some photos of the chest we want to give away and the upholstery design which we need for the wrap around cushions. The chest is in very good condition - I think the van was hardly used before we bought it and we took it out immediately. Does anybody match please?
resurrecting this thread, I'm after a centre chest for a Series 5 Pageant Bailey Bordeaux. I'm guessing that a centre chest of any of the Series 5 range would fit?

Yes any from the range would fit but you'd have to make sure the colour of the wood is the same....i.e oak etc I've searched online for but had no luck one sold a while ago on Ebay for £60..... Have you tried a Caravan type breakers i.e insurance write offs etc might be able to pick one up from them?
We have the drawers from a Bailey ranger 5 series we are keen to swap for the cushions if anyone is interested. I have tried lots of sites but there only seems to be the drawers avaliable.
Can anyone help I am prepared to put new fabric on if they dont match!!
