100% designed and built in Melbourne, Australia. Lightweight With fuel prices only set to rise and cars becoming increasingly lighter and smaller, lightweight caravans just make sense.

3 100% designed and built in Melbourne, Australia. Lightweight With fuel prices only set to rise and cars becoming increasingly lighter and smaller, lightweight caravans just make sense. They give you access to a much wider range of tow vehicles and not only will they cost you less to take on your travels, they are much safer to tow. Bailey is the industry leader in lightweight technology and our locally designed and built Rangefinder caravans can weigh up to 500kg less, depending on the model comparison, than other local caravans of similar size and equipment. The secret is our patented five-part Alu-Tech construction that employs impact resistant fibreglass body panels that are bonded and bolted to a unique interlocking aluminium external frame and fixed internally to a very rigid 44mm thick floor. Attached to it is an Australian-designed and robotically-welded DuraGal steel chassis, combining to create a caravan of unrivalled strength yet light in weight, whilst also meeting the highest Grade III thermal insulation standards. Built in Australia Bailey is the first European manufacturer to undertake local caravan production in Australia, bringing the latest construction techniques, processes and cutting-edge design and technology to our travellers. The process begins with an understanding of Australian caravanning needs, including feedback from current Bailey caravan owners, as well as understanding the preference of the Australian caravanning public for specific interior layouts. Space, usability, comfort and livability are key considerations in every step of the process. Rangefinders are built from the inside out, with local CNC-cut furniture securely fixed in place before being bonded and fastened to the caravan walls and ceiling panels to create an immensely strong overall body structure. Australian designed and sourced chassis, furniture, doors, kitchen, bathroom and laundry appliances are all chosen for their suitability for our conditions and their local service and support. Year Warranty* As standard on all Bailey Rangefinder caravans 10*Applicable to water ingress All Rangefinder caravans carry Bailey s industry leading 10 year water ingress warranty. The components of Bailey s patented Alu-Tech bodyshell construction system are manufactured at Bailey of Bristol and then shipped to Australia for building onto our locally-designed and manufactured DuraGal steel chassis. This process gives Rangefinder buyers access to the precision manufacturing processes of Britain s topselling caravan maker.

Underslung full-size alloy spare wheel/tyre Strength Bailey s patented Alu-Tech design technology takes a completely new approach to bodyshell construction. Using a unique interlocking aluminium external framework to which the impact-resistant fibreglass bodyshell panels are bonded and bolted using internal fixings, means your Rangefinder caravan is strong and rigid providing greater protection against the elements. Durability Timber-free upper bodyshell panels featuring a composite plastic internal skeleton and fibreglass wall linings, in conjunction with a significant reduction in the number of external joints and fixing points enhance Rangefinder s resistance to water ingress. First line of defence ingress prevention Use of a five part panel system reduces exterior seams Structural interlocking aluminium external framework with no external fixing points Flush fit bonded windows and exterior service doors with no external fittings Second line of defence ingress management Panels built using a timber free construction, incorporating a composite plastic internal skeleton, high density polystyrene insulation and low maintenance fibreglass inner wall linings Panels incorporating low absorbency buffer zones surrounding window and doors Thermal Insulation The use of fully laminated fibreglass panels incorporating high-density polystyrene insulation enhances the thermal performance of the bodyshell, making Rangefinder a genuine four-season caravan.
