Anyone who has driven Down Under will know that Australian roads can be gruelling, so with a Bailey Unicorn model hitting the Australian market, the Bristol-based manufacturer decided to ramp up the standard endurance test.
All Bailey models undergo rigorous examinations at the Al-Ko test centre in Germany, but if the standard test is a lap around the park, the test for the Australian model was a marathon.
The Unicorn Cabrera underwent a string of pushing endurance tests on the driving track – which includes potholes, Belgian pave and rumble strips – and passed with flying colours.
Having completed 1,000 laps of the one kilometre track, Al-Ko calculated that the caravan had endured the equivalent of 100,000 km of use, further reinforcing the strength of Bailey’s patented Alu-Tech bodyshells.
The only difference between the Australian model and the standard UK Unicorn is that it features the GRP outer skin seen on Orion and Approach SE motorhome models as opposed to the standard aluminium skin.
