Bailey Unicorn Series 2 caravan released
Features on the new-look Unicorn Series 2 range include soaring panoramic front windows, an extended list of luxury and convenience features for long-term touring, and even plusher interior fit-out.
Bailey Australia believe the new Unicorn S2, which is the first major revision to the Unicorn since it arrived in the Aussie market last year, will point the way to future Australian caravan design. The Unicorn S2 will take pride of place on the Bailey Australia stand at the Supershow at Caulfield Racecourse.
"Bailey is the largest caravan manufacturer in the UK, but they are determined to succeed in the Australian market," said Bailey Australia Managing Director, Adrian Van Geelan.
"We have listened to our customers and Bailey have listened to our recommendations and the result in the Unicorn S2 range is a light, but very strong caravan that is even more suitable for tough Australian travelling conditions."
Apart from their space-age styling, the new Unicorn S2 models feature more impact resistant and even better insulated side and roof body panels, uprated axles, they have substantially larger water tanks and larger refrigerators, improved stone protection, a taller ride height, better ground clearance (helped by a new high-mount spare wheel carrier), plus improved flyscreens and window blinds to deal with Aussie conditions.
Detail changes include the fitting of an external grab rail for safer entry and exit, a more ergonomic kitchen design with a two-stage bench height, an increased number of 240v and 12v power outlets and more robust fixing of wardrobe hanging rails and internal window surrounds.
All Baileys are now pre-wired for solar power and satellite television, there is a new leatherette trim option as an alternative to the standard fashion fabric upholstery and all Unicorn S2s are fitted with premium Michelin tyres on 15-inch rims.
Like all Baileys, the new models are built on a lightweight, yet strong fabricated and galvanised steel chassis using the company's patented Alu-Tech five-part modular construction, in which the wall, ceiling and floor are housed in a structural interlocking aluminium framework.
This industry-leading concept has resulted in further weight-savings in the latest models, ensuring that the entire Unicorn S2 range can be legally and safely towed by family-sized Australian cars and most light SUVs.
The proven strength of this advanced construction allows Bailey to warrant all its caravans for six year in body shell integrity, with a three-year guarantee on manufacturers' components.
The three-model Bailey Unicorn S2 range being sold by Bailey Australia includes single and twin axle models, with internal body lengths ranging from 5.682mm (18ft 8in) to 6.232mm (20ft 5in) and tare weights from 1560kg to 1680kg.
Bailey offer a six-year warranty on body shells and three-year guarantee on manufacturer's components. See the new Bailey Unicorn S2 for yourself at the Melbourne Caravan, Camping and Touring Supershow.
