WHAT TO PAY

We found prices up to £11,495, while the lowest, apart from our example here, was £10,588 – so our model, at £9495, was a steal! But shop around and look out for added extras as part of the deal.

ALTERNATIV­ES

If weight isn’t a problem for you, a Bessacarr, with more space and luxury, could be another option and has the same layout. For £9495, you could choose a Bessacarr Cameo 525 from 2008/9. Or you could go for a lightweigh­t rival, the Bailey Ranger GT60 510-4 from 2010, at £10,195. It comes with a good specificat­ion, too.
