Ivana that's a great deal, well done you.  We looked at some Baileys yesterday but to be honest they only had half of the ranges in which was a shame.  I like the 500/5 and the Auvergne, ie the twin dinette layout.  I am not sold on a fixed bed/island bed as we have a super king size bed at home and I think it would be too small for us.

Michael you missed my Alko carrier for sale

We have the Oklahoma and after 8 months very little gone wrong

We picked the Oklahoma over the Indiana because we liked the microwave position at waist height and because I sleep on the wall side which makes it easier for HRH to make numerous trips to the loo each night

The Indiana is ideal for couples with different toilet needs

Now Bailey have the Virginia for the doubly incontinent

Hi we have the Bailey Indiana good van but very noisy water pump on to Bailey big time about this if anyone has same problem e-mail me.

We have for many years  had a Shurflow inboard pump and by comparison the Whale on the Bailey is  a gem

Have you tried removing the screws that hold down the pump and resting it on a piece of sponge?

It helped with the Shurflow

We just picked up our Bailey Ranger 550/6 yesterday and so far we love it. We had a really good look round and there were a number of different vans we liked but we particularly liked the fixed bunks on this model. Our kids are 9 + 11 and there seems to be plenty of growing room left for them. We like the dinette so that I can get up and have a cuppa in peace before the kids get up and the oh is still snoring sweetly! Can't wait to get out in it next weekend now, just hope the weather's better than this weekend.

Hi we purchased a baileys pageant  5 berth and we are delighted with it. we looked at all diff makes and baileys came out on top. Make sure you can tow the van safely as we were told our car would tow it easily and found out that it was a total miss match. Do some research before you buy. We now tow our van with a KIA Sorento.

We won't be towing as the van is sited in an excellent place where we have sea, sun, sand, moorland etc all within easy reach.  The attraction of a Bailey beyond that of their good name and reputation is there is a dealer 8 miles away who will pick it up, drop it off blah de blah for servicing etc.  I do intend to change the car in due course and will ensure new car can tow whatever we end up buying.
