JTQ why should the closure be inevitable? Royale caravans ceased production in 1982, but we still have a thriving club which rallies 7 or 8 times a year! Our oldest van was built in 1970, and still comes out a couple of times a year.Enthusiasm is all that's needed to keep a club flourishing.JTQ said:Inevitable given they ceased production in the mid 90s however those of us lucky enough to have owned one remember them with great affection. Ours was a 1991 Roadser and was built with a level of craftsmanship I have yet to see the equal of at any price.
