i saw a series of pictures of the bailey crash tests in the first one all th seats disapeared through the floor.this was explained that alko had said no outriggers were needed on that size of van
send time the fridge came out of the front window so they tie them down now
third one showed all the welds letting go on the seat belt supports on the rear seats despite it having been crash tested by manufacturers
all these were at 30 mph

No dribbling please .....




They've ditched the cheapy hob for a less cheapy one - at a higher price

Cheapy oven and fridge remain, with no option to upgrade

My model 79f has been renamed
Yipeeeee

Only 60 sleeps until collection
Then 3 weeks 'pimping' and replacing the shitty bits with proper bits
@Lenny HB will be project foreman

Seeing the way they re made - a decent pothole could probably see off a Bailey.

1996, then break 'til 2011

I avoid concrete walls/accidents.......

My van (1991 !) has no crumple zones, air bags, pre-tensioners ............

I drive 'defensively' ......sometimes not having 'safety devices' makes you - drive a little further back, look further ahead (sh*t brakes) - no ABS,..... calm, cool, relaxed............

............Love driving my MH..................1960's style(y)..in a 1990's van(y)
