This super four-berth still offers value for money, says Andrew Jenkinson

BAILEY UNICORN CABRERA (2012)

IN 2010 BAILEY launched its Pegasus range, replacing the Senator, a well-specified, hugely popular tourer. The Pegasus featured the new Alu-Tech construction, which was seen as a revolution in durability in caravan design.

The Unicorn line-up hit the forecourts for the 2011 model year. The Unicorn had the same profile as the Pegasus, but was considered by many to be far better looking inside, and it was soon selling well.

The Unicorn seen here is the Cabrera, a rear-island-bed layout highly suited to couples, although it is a four-berth.

The Unicorn had a superb spec, including Alde heating, an alarm and tracker, a BBQ point and an exterior mains socket.

The range comprised seven layouts, adding to the appeal of this luxury line-up. Generous storage and quality upholstery were also part of the offering.

The Cabrera launched in 2011, following through until 2012, after which it was discontinued.
