The History of the Micro caravan is due out shortly, watch for further infomation on this website and in the caravan press.
The book features some humorous pictures of motorbikes pulling small caravans. The book starts in the early 1920's and goes up to the present day and shows just how ingenious some of these designs were fitting five persons in to 10ft x 6ft caravans-with a loo compartment! Sprite, Thomson, Eccles, Bailey, Freedom, Berkeley are just a few of the makes and models featured in the book. Due to work pressures the book has run to 2 years over due! For further updates please e-mail me.
 
Back in May 05 I decided that my six year old Ranger 500/5 was due for a change. My choices were narrowed down to end washroom layouts and a top price tag of £12,000. Elddis Avante was a firm favourite as I feel Explorer Group offer a quality van for good money. But Baileys Pageants series 5 offered more value and were lighter too. The Champagne was chosen and a deal struck with Bardsea Leisure at Ulverston in Cumbria. Bardsea offer a great service and more and better still some weeks later while visiting the dealership I actually met the purchasers of our trusty Ranger-we know its going to a good home!
