Hi I am just looking to change our caravan to a bailey Indiana, I am wondering if anyone had any issues with the model.

Hi, I have a series 5 Indiana and we love it to bits. Some of the first ones (series 5) had issues with cracking/splitting front and back panels along the awning rails and also the top roof strap but as far as I know they rectified the problem and it was definitely sorted by the time series 6 (the one you want to look at), was released. Ours had a damp issue at the near side rear corner due to a failed awning seal. We had the awning rails replaced front and back on both sides and also had the roof straps replaced at the same time just to be sure! It was a success and its dry as a bone ever since. We use it very regularly, covering over 10,000 miles with it last year both in the uk and the continent and there have been no other issues. Get it checked by someone who knows what they are looking at and if he/she thinks its ok you should have many happy trips over the coming years.

If it doesn't work out, maybe private message me as we are considering upgrading this year and can promise ours is a good one. We might be interested in doing a deal!! ;-)

You didn't mention the noisy water pump.

I've only ever owned this caravan and didn't know they were supposed to be silent!! Obviously can't be too bad as I didst feel it was worthy of a mention.. :-)

Seriously, there a great van, like you we pulled ours all over the place for a number of years. Had no trouble selling it either. Tried everything to quieten the pump.
