A compact German-built caravan with a fixed bed layout.
The Weinsberg Caraone 390QD/UK is a compact 2 to 4 berth caravan measuring 5.93m in length. It features a front transverse fixed bed and a rear convertible dinette, making it a versatile choice for couples or small families.

- Front transverse fixed double bed layout.
- Rear dinette that converts into additional berths.
- Lightweight 1350kg MTPLM suitable for smaller tow cars.
- Kitchen equipped with a three-burner hob and Dometic refrigerator.

Compare the Weinsberg Caraone 390QD/UK with similar models
| Model | Berths | MTPLM | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weinsberg Caraone 390QD/UK | 4 | 1350 kg | 5.93 m | £14,500 to £23,000 |
| Swift Challenger 480 | 4 | 1300 kg | 6.50 m | £10,000 to £25,000 |
| Swift Freestyle S4 FB | 4 | 1350 kg | 6.45 m | £14,500 to £24,500 |
The Weinsberg Caraone 390QD/UK occupies a specific niche for those prioritising a fixed bed within a sub-6m total length. While alternatives like the Swift Freestyle S4 FB offer similar weights with more length, the Weinsberg focuses on a compact footprint and German build quality. It provides a higher payload than some competitors like the Lunar Stellar, though it sacrifices the open floor plan found in non-fixed-bed models.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the smart storage solutions under the fixed bed to keep the main floor clear.
- Regularly check the AKS stabiliser pads for wear to ensure safe towing performance.
- Monitor the GRP roof seals as part of annual maintenance to preserve weather resistance.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Overloading the rear dinette area which may affect the 1350kg MTPLM balance.
- Failing to account for the 2.32m width when navigating narrow UK lanes.
Worth knowing: The 260kg payload must include all personal effects and optional extras.
