Note it isn't a Supreme as made by Viscount; the name was purchased and vans are now being made another Victorian manufacturer. Do you due diligence, check Lemon Caravans and RV's Beware list to see if it gets a guernsey?

No experience with this van but a bit of a search shows 2100-2200kg tare, with ATM under 2500Kg, so not much of a payload, as you have suggested.
Cant help any more, but good luck in your search! Cheers

Thanks for your replies, Yobarr & Possum, it is not new so maybe not related..... in any case I thought Supreme were a stand alone brand.... but just my own idea....

I think you are wrong. Concept Caravans revived Viscount. Supreme is an independent manufacturer.

You sure about that, Concept revived the Franklin name.

I have a 2021 Supreme Territory off-road and and have been prepared for the usual poor workmanship on many things which I have had to repair. But opening the door to find that the fridge falling out the other day was the last straw. Three screws either side. On the left just 7 mm penetration into the timber on the side. On the right hand side just 3 mm.
Tim, a very sad reflection on today's workmanship and job pride. Hope you get it sorted.

We joined the supreme clique with a rare 30th anniversary model. It towed nicely & met the specified brief.

Congratulations, enjoy.
I would never complain that my refrigerator was loose in my 4 year old Supreme, we learnt a lot from owning that wonderful caravan, a little maintenance goes along way.

It is not about a refrigerator being loose or anything to do with maintenance. It is about the poor installation and quality of workmanship but if you accept such low standards in life then good for you.

I believe if you do an ASIC search you will determine that Supreme has no relationship to Viscount the original Viscount Supreme; View Details - Organisations and Business Names (asic.gov.au)
