The Bailey Alliance Series 1 59-2 occupies a competitive position in the two-berth market, priced between 44000 and 54000. While it shares the 5.99 metre length and 3500kg MTPLM of the Elddis Evolution 120, the Bailey distinguishes itself with a 160bhp engine and a substantial 755kg payload. Alternatives like the Auto-Sleepers Nuevo Ek Plus offer a shorter 5.75 metre body for tighter spaces, whereas the Auto-Trail Imala 615 provides more internal length at 6.34 metres. The choice between these models often depends on whether the buyer prioritises the Bailey's high payload and Peugeot 160bhp power plant over the automatic transmissions or different dimensions found in its rivals.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the 755kg payload to carry essential gear without exceeding the 3500kg limit.
- Make use of the integrated USB charging sockets in the directional spotlights for devices.
- Regularly clean the 100 watt solar panel to maintain off-grid charging efficiency.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming there is enough external locker space for large outdoor furniture.
- Overlooking the 3500kg MTPLM limit when adding heavy aftermarket accessories.
Worth knowing: The 2.28 metre width requires care when navigating narrow rural lanes. The 2.61 metre height must be considered for height-restricted car parks.
