Are new Lunar caravans still made?

No. Lunar Caravans Ltd entered administration in March 2019 and no new Lunar caravans have been built since. Any Lunar caravan you buy today will be a used example.

Is Bailey or Lunar better for first-time caravan buyers?

Bailey is generally the lower-risk first-time buy because there is current manufacturer support, dealer cover and the option of warranty. Lunar can suit first-time buyers on a tight budget who understand they are buying a used-only caravan with no manufacturer backing.

Which has more used Bailey and Lunar caravans to compare on RoamWorthy?

Bailey has a larger used market because the brand is still in production. Lunar used stock is still available but is gradually reducing as older caravans leave the market.

Should I compare MTPLM when choosing between Bailey and Lunar?

Yes. Older Lunar caravans in particular can vary widely in MTPLM depending on year and layout. Always check MTPLM on the listing and verify against your tow car using the towing calculator before committing.

What should I check on a used Lunar caravan?

Treat any used Lunar like any other used caravan: review the documented habitation history, check the damp record, and inspect the bodyshell carefully. Because there is no current manufacturer warranty, an independent habitation check is especially worthwhile.

Bailey vs Lunar Caravans: Which Brand Should You Compare?

Bailey is a current UK caravan manufacturer building new caravans with Alu-Tech bonded construction. Lunar Caravans Ltd entered administration in March 2019, so Lunar is now a used-market-only purchase. The realistic comparison is between buying a new or recent used Bailey with ongoing manufacturer support, or buying a used Lunar at a typically lower price with no manufacturer warranty on newer models. Both decisions are valid for different budgets and risk appetites.

Verdict

Bailey may suit buyers wanting current model support and warranty options; Lunar may suit buyers comparing the lowest used prices and accepting no manufacturer support.

Bailey is straightforward: an active manufacturer with a current range, dealer network and the option of buying new or recent used. Lunar is a different proposition. Since the company entered administration in 2019, there are no new Lunar caravans, no factory warranty on newer models, and parts support depends on the third-party aftermarket and independent specialists. Lunar caravans are often priced lower used than equivalent Bailey models. Buyers should weigh that saving against the loss of manufacturer support, then check the habitation history and damp record on any specific listing.
