The Bristol manufacturer has revamped a best-seller to mark its anniversary

BAILEY REVEALS NEW PHOENIX GT75 RANGE

BAILEY OF BRISTOL is 75 years old this year, and to celebrate the occasion, it has revamped its best-selling Phoenix+ line-up to create a whole new offering. We paid a visit to Bailey’s HQ for the launch, to see all of the new models in the metal.

The big news is that a six-berth with an end washroom has been added to the new Phoenix GT75 range. The 762 model (see our review in issue 468), which is the only twin-axle in the range, in effect replaces the five-berth 650. As well as that end washroom, it features a pair of permanent bunks on the offside, next to a single dinette on the offside that includes a pop-up sixth bunk.

BEST 4-BERTH CARAVAN - Bailey Phoenix Black Edition 640

Bailey’s Phoenix range remains a family favourite, while its relatively light weight compared to the similar but wider Pegasus Black Edition lineup means they are more suited to regular tow cars.

Six-berth caravans that offer a pair of bunk beds at the back opposite a little lounge that can turn, when needed, either into a single bed or another pair of bunks are an ideal solution for families.
