Bailey’s new Endurance campervan has debuted at the NEC this week, a ‘van which comes with the option of a TentBox roof tent.
Based on a Ford Transit “Grey Matter” base vehicle, the Endurance E65 could be a good candidate for those who are after a vehicle which is suited to off-grid campervanning, thanks to its two leisure batteries and 130W solar panel. A Truma Combi D4E heating system could make winter touring a much more appealing prospect, too.
The E65 has a front dinette, a kitchen which includes a Thetford 90-litre fridge and a gas hob with two burners, a rear fold-away transverse double bed with storage underneath, and a washroom with a tambour partition door and a shower.
That’s not all, with a wide range of optional extras available, offering plenty of choice for campervan upgrades. These include an automatic gearbox, a microwave, a Thule awning and 16″ alloy wheels.
There is also an Adventure Pack (£1,250), which adds a Rhino roof rack and ladder, roof-mounted off-road lighting and two 100W Truma campervan solar panels; opting for this pack will then allow you to add the Tentbox roof tent too (£2,790), which comes in an eye-catching Sunset Orange.
As standard, the Endurance E65 has an OTR price of £69,999, an MTPLM of 3500kg, a MiRO of 2813kg and a payload of 687kg, as well as a length of 5.98m and a width of 2.49m.
However, opting for the Adventure Pack will drop your available payload to 647kg, and adding the TentBox lowers it further to 567kg.
Other brands to be releasing new models this week include Malibu, which has its more budget-friendly Relax campervan making its UK debut. Joining it in debuting at the NEC is the Auto-Sleepers Active range, a three-model line-up which is targeted at families and younger buyers.
