The GT60 is a lower spec than the Loire, the interior will be different colours, larger fridge maybe,  etc. The pageant went first and was replaced by the pegasus 1 then the new olympus was release & i think eventually will take over the GT60, Bailey have now released the orion & pegasus 2. There idea is to now replace all caravans they produce with the new alu-tec bodies so the Loire will be replaced aswell. When I spoke to Bailey they say at the moment they have to change all the workshops over to make alu-tec at a huge cost so its more cost effective for them to just now produce alu-tec caravans.

Hope that helps.

The Loire is a higher spec van than the GT60 which is classed as more of a budget range van . I'd imagine they'd be a premium to pay on the loire over the GT60 maybe 500 quid more or so . I'm not 100% but think the GT60 range may have ceased production earlier than the pageant which i believe was replaced by the newer pegasus range ?

You obviously have never been in a Ranger GT60, they are as much like a budget caravan as fish are like penguins!

Bailey used up a lot of the Pageant body shells for the GT 60 and I bought one last year, I also also have a Pageant Burgundy and it's almost identical, infact in many ways the GT60 is the better caravan.

The Ranger GT60 finished production in June 2010 and we had one of the last made, if you spend time inspecting it carefuly on collection and get anything done BEFORE you leave you will be delighted with it, we have had nothing to remedy on ours and it tows great, so would not hesitate to recommend one.

The 7 Pageant series is also a first class choice but for the differance in price for what you get save yourself some money and go for the GT60

We've got the Loire S7 and absolutely love it.  We have 2 teenagers who take a front seat each for bed and we have the fixed bed at the back.  Because we always get up before them in the morning we have the convenience of somewhere to sit as we also have the dinette.  There's loads of storage space - in fact I don't think we've ever filled all the cupboards!

Get the Loire!
