Google-ing the van, it appears the last model was made in 2011.
I recall seeing a new one in Townsville around that year - it was made in China, perhaps to keep the price lower.
There have been several takeovers since then by Windsor & other companies - the end of two reasonably good brands - Coromal & Windsor.

Warren,
Why do you say that the purchase of Windsor and Coromal brands is the end of them?
I have a 2021 Coromal van built by Apollo in Brisbane, which I bought new. It is a great van and better built than the two vans I had from new from the largest van builder in OZ.
Apollo continue to make Windsor vans but have passed the Coromal brand on to Majestic. Many vanners now say Coromals built by Majestic are rubbish but, I believe, without any evidence or experience.
I have looked over a Majestic-built Coromal, a precursory look I'll admit but it looked very well=built.
Cheers,
Roy.

Not that we're going to buy another caravan but we've been invited to look thru two Majestic vans by the owners & they were both top notch.
just curious.....
