This is an incredibly affordable four-berth caravan for an active couple that want a fixed bed.  The new Xplore range are very much on trend with the black taps and grey interior.  It is quite a basic design, but aimed at outdoor people that need something that can deal with the mud and dirt brought in from a long days hike or bike ride.
