OK, so today we went to look at the new Luna Quasar 574.  

We had great hopes for it as we do like our 2015 462, we just need we think something bigger because of how big we think our new puppy is going to grow.  It was touch and go back in March as to if the 462 was going to be big enough and after 20 nights away in it during the spring we think long term it won't be.

So the new 574????? Nice caravan BUT!!!!!!!  The width of the Quasar's is not enough really to accomodate the transverse bed layout.   The extra few inches you get for instance in a Lexon makes all the difference.

We did however look at a Bailey Brindisi, which I have to say I think is pretty perfect for our needs.  The shower doesn't look to be as big as you get in a Lunar, but it's still better than that in the Sprit Major (with transverse bed).  

We loved the tall fridge and the kitchen layout too.  

Only downsides are getting our heads around the lack of front gas locker and my husband isn't too comfortable with the left hand side sofa where the end of it is exposed to the door without any sort of end cushion to recline back on when watching TV.

Just awaiting some figures now from the dealer and then it's going to be decision making time.

Has anyone bought a Brindisi?
