I've just posted a comment in another thread by my 2006 Bailey Ranger went back to the factory for repair after damp found at te first service.

In May 2006, my 1 year old Bailey Ranger 550/6 was diagnosed with damp (60% in some places)by the dealer as part of the annual service. I went through the debate about rejection under sale of goods etc. but as long as they offer repair, they're within their rights. Bailey wanted to take the van...

It's the Santa Fe for me as well. I've got an 03 2.0 diesel and it averages 36 solo, 28 towing. Seems very reliable but I think servicing's slightly expensive at

With my Bailey Ranger, you have to pull the shower head (not twist) to get the spray setting.

If you're in the Camping and Caravan club, there's a small Certified site in Grange Road, Netley. I stayed there a few weeks back and it was fine if you've got your own facilities. You can be at the ferry terminal in about 20 mins from the site if you go over the Itchen Toll Bridge (not sure how...

Richard I just remembered that I posted a similar question to yours a few months back - http://www.practicalcaravan.com/newforums/fm_messages.asp?fo=5&fm=58326 I hope you get a few more replies than I did!! Regards

Ooops, hit 'Submit' too early there ! The total is 270kg which put me over weight. I ended up carrying the awning in the roof-box which helps loads. I would be interested in your experioence as I have real trouble getting the nose weight down to 80kg (the car's limit) without loading a...

Richard I too have a Bailey Ranger 550/6 (is your 560/6 a typo?). As it was my first van, I decided weigh the items as I added them (kg) Spare Wheel 20 2 Gas Bottles 35 Chocks 5 Battery 23 Awning 35 Ground Sheets 5 Pots and Pans 5 Bedding 15 Kitchen stuff 60 Aqua Roll 5 Aqua...

Just the one - it's a beauty though!!

Reading some of the recent posts on this forum, I've come to the conclusion that I must be one of the most unliked people around as... I drive a large 4x4 I've got a brand new van I have two kids I have two dogs I take the TV (and wait for it, Sky+!) I stay on commercial sites I like...

Phil I've towed with a diesel Santa Fe for a few months now and really like the car. It pulls our 1400kg van easily and returns around 36 solo, 27 towing. Backed with the 5 year warranty, I thinks it's a real 'value' package. I've just had a 30k service and it was

Edward There are a few SatNav systems to choose from and I can only comment on the TomTom Go 300 as it's the one I've got. When calculating your route, you can ask for the 'Quickest' or 'Shortest'. If you choose 'shortest', you may be taken down some pretty unsuitable 'towing' roads. When...

Ray - sorry, I got cross threaded with the TTG safety cameras one! I should have thanked you and not Graham! Louis

Graham I've just checked the TT website and you are running version 5.0 of the operating system whereas TT are now recommending 5.2 (I've just upgraded mine as it was 5.1) You can get details here...

Graham I think I've finally cracked it!! Taking all the trim out again tonight, the black wire from the 12S socket (Fridge -ve) was not connected to anything (it was taped up!). I connected it to the car chassis and bingo - it all works. The one thing I did notice though was that on taking the...
