Buying a Bailey Olympus 504

Who it suits

  • Touring couples who prefer a dedicated fixed bed without nightly assembly.
  • Families with younger children who can utilise the side-dinette conversion.
  • Owners of mid-sized family cars looking for a 4 berth caravan under 1500kg MTPLM.

Reasons to consider it

  • The Alu-Tech construction provides superior thermal insulation for year-round use.
  • A full-width rear washroom offers privacy and space comparable to larger models.
  • The 7.25 metre length is manageable for single-axle towing and site pitching.

What to check

  • Confirm the operation of the integrated Truma heating and hot water system.
  • Inspect the vertical front skylight and seals for any signs of wear.
  • Verify the condition of the AL-KO AKS 3004 Stabiliser friction pads.
  • Check the fixed bed mattress and side-dinette upholstery for condition.

Worth knowing: Payload is 168kg; ensure this accommodates all intended equipment and personal effects. The 2.19 metre width is narrower than some modern wide-body alternatives.

The Bailey Olympus 504 occupies a mid-market position, offering the Alu-Tech bodyshell at a price point between the older Senator Indiana and the more expensive Unicorn Valencia. While it shares its 7.25 metre length with the Pegasus Milan, the Olympus 504 is lighter, making it accessible to a broader range of tow cars. It provides a balance of modern features like the vertical skylight and a traditional fixed bed layout, though buyers seeking more payload or interior width may consider the Unicorn or Pegasus ranges.

Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

Ownership and Maintenance Tips

  • Utilise the 7.25 metre length and 2.19 metre width to ensure your storage pitch is adequate.
  • Regularly clean the large vertical skylight to maintain the bright interior atmosphere.
  • Monitor the 1440kg MTPLM against your vehicle's towing limit using a calculator.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Exceeding the 168kg payload by installing heavy optional extras like motor movers without adjustment.
  • Assuming the side-dinette is suitable for two large adults.

Worth knowing: Always verify the specific MTPLM on the weight plate as specifications can vary by year.
