Bailey Barcelona Van.


Hi all, just wondering if anyone has any experience with this Brand. I know they are out of business now, so wondering about parts etc. They seem to have very good reviews and a good layout. Cheers DR.

Hi Dusty I've googled that van and what I found was a payload allowance if only 163kg. Lightweight vans can have this sort of issue (not all). Some even need water filling at your destination due to the load weight limitations.

 

I own a jurgens J1901 also lightweight but has 250kg load standard, now 395kg upgraded. Ok for us with extra large water tank etc. So beware their limits weight wise otherwise good for tar roads. Spares like front window could be problematic.

 

Have you seen the Jurgens Lunagazer or Tooradin?  What tow car have you got??

Tony
