So, the Ranger is dead.

However, interesting to read in the Ranger announcement that Bailey will be introducing a new, entry level caravan in the Alu-Tech system. They need it. One thing that Bailey has always been about has been value for money - and while the Pegasus, Olympus and Unicorn feature some interesting technology the prices have been creeping up, making Bailey less of a bargain.

Don't forget your roots, Bailey! Innovate, but don't isolate.

Thanks for the info Ratty. I agree with Viggo on this one. We were sorry to see the end of the Pageant range & to now see the Ranger go as well it leaves a big hole in the Bailey line up at our price level & could well see us changing manufacturer or giving up all together when the time comes to change our Series 7 Pageant. Thankfully it's not 2 years old yet & will last us a good while.

Thanks again Ratty,

Not a complete surprise but I for one will be sorry to see the passing of the faithful Pageant range. I tend to go along with Basilbrush on this one, we are all a bit sensitive to change but its the ever rising cost that annoys me because a new van of similar spec when we come to replace ours may well be out of our budget.

Dave.

I agree with all the comments above. I for one have been waiting exclusively for this replacement. Finally...

Does this mean we'll get to see it at the Oct show in Birmingham do you think or later at the Feb one??

Hope so....

My gut feeling is that they will have at least a show model at the Oct show as they won't be showing any Ranger / GT60 models and to not show anything would leave a huge gap at the bottom of the market.

Even Initial designs and like you said Zafiral a show model are better than nothing as not having anything would give the impression their out of business
