Owning a Caravelair Antares 426
- Keep a written payload calculation for six occupants, camping equipment and personal items, using the recorded payload of 160 kilograms as the reference point.
- Recheck the caravan’s plated weights and dimensions before loading or moving it, because the supplied specification may vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
- Plan storage around the fixed bunk beds, side dinette and transverse fixed bed so that equipment does not obstruct sleeping or living areas.
- Allow for the recorded height of 2.58 metres when checking storage, covered parking and access routes.
- Use the recorded length of 6.16 metres and width of 2.1 metres when assessing storage space, manoeuvring room and pitch suitability.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming specifications are unchanged across model years or trims.
- Loading for six people without accounting for the combined weight of occupants, equipment and personal belongings within the 160-kilogram payload.
- Relying on nominal dimensions without allowing for access and storage constraints associated with a caravan measuring 6.16 metres long, 2.1 metres wide and 2.58 metres high.
Worth knowing: No production years are supplied, so servicing and age-related checks must be based on the individual caravan. The supplied data does not identify particular ownership faults or maintenance intervals.
