Hi all we have just purchased a Bailey Unicorn Cadiz at the NEC, what I'm wondering is how can I tell if it's a 2016 model or 2017 model.
I was told it will come straight from factory to the dealer, and could be there by December or January, so can any one tell me if there is a difference between 2016 and 2017.
Thanks. Rick

Erm............no idea, I can only suggest phoning the people you bought it from and asking them, that will be the only way to be absolutely sure.

I asked that when we ordered it, they say it will be 2017, just wanted to know if there's a way to tell, obviously if it's registered in Dec it would be classed as 2016 or would it?

No, it's a 2017.

Some people are already using their 2017 vans.

We purchased from the show a few years back and took delivery just before Christmas 2012, the van was classed as a 2013 model as it was the new version launched at the show in October. Yours will be the new 2017 van, you should be able to check all the new spec on the Bailey website.

One thing to bear in mind.
I think if you take delivery before Jan 1st it will be registered as a 2016 caravan, so it will be valued less when you come to trade.
I may stand to be corrected on this, but it is certainly worth looking into.

Wise move.

More important than any minor changes to the caravan is the £1500 less at trade in.

Check the VIN

the 10th character denotes the year

G=2016
H=2017

my Bailey Indiana was a 2008 model but registered in Nov 2007.
But the cris number was 2008.

Couple dealers tried it on being a 2007 when i went to part exchange, but in the end got 2008 money.
