See the all new Leisure Vehicle from Bailey which now comes with 10 year water ingress warranty.

See us and the Pegasus at the International Caravan & Motorhome 2009 at NEC

Buyers of the brand new and innovative Bailey Pegasus touring caravans will get an added bonus of low insurance premiums because of ‘as standard’ security and safety features.

The Pegasus range comes with an impressive selection of devices fitted as standard. These not only make the caravan safer and more secure but also help to reduce annual insurance costs.

Caravan Guard insurance offer a discount for many of the devices fitted to the Pegasus range, including 5% off for the intruder alarm, 25% off for the ‘Tracker’ tracking device, 10% off for the AL-KO Secure axle wheel locking device and a further 5% saving for the AL-KO ATC ‘anti snaking device’.

Director Ryan Wilby had this to say,

“The security and safety features of the Pegasus range really make a difference when it comes to your insurance premium because they significantly reduce the risk of theft or towing accidents. Simply put, the owners of such caravans will be rewarded with lower premiums.”

It is that time of year again were we need all of our customers help.

Practical Caravan are running Dealer of the Year and we would really like you all to vote for us, so that we can win again.

To vote simply follow the link and win yourself a free subscription.

Thank you.

We must say a very big thank you to all of you who voted for us in the CRiS Dealer of the Year Awards.

We are very proud to say we have won for the whole of the North of England region again. Its a great honour and good recognition of what we are trying to do. Its also nice to know that its not going un-noticed. We do try our best.

Bailey also won numerous awards for their caravans, so now you can purchase award winning caravans from an award winnning dealer.

Given the recent developments with Avondale, we are trying to secure all original parts going back over the last 5yrs. Today we have secured all the aluminium exterior extrusions and mouldings, all the exterior aluminium panels, and all the wallboards and furniture boards. We have one company coming back to us regarding the front and rear panels and shower trays and another company with all the exterior graphics and decals. We hope to have this confirmed next week.

We have done this to ensure that in the unfortunate event, should anyone have an accident with their Avondale or the caravan suffers from water ingress and damp, we at Read Caravans will still be able to repair them. We also want to look after all Avondale owners and their caravans.

All these original parts will be held at our Blackburn Service Centre, and they can be contacted on 01254 694313 option 3 Monday to Friday.

At Read Caravans we are always trying to improve the way we run our business. Over the last 2 years we have significantly increased the amount of waste we are recycling, and are now currently achieving approximately 80%. In a drive to build on this and also cut down on the amount of paper wasted, we are now going paperless for all our service reminders, special offers and promotions. We will also be sending all invitations to all further Roadshows by email only. We are now asking all our customers and would be customers, to provide us with an email address to achieve this.
