A dedicated two-berth motorhome with a spacious end washroom.
The Bailey Approach 635 is a 2-berth motorhome from the Approach Advance range, designed for couples seeking a spacious parallel settee lounge and a full-width rear washroom. Measuring 6.75m in length and 2.42m in width, it utilizes the AL-KO AMC chassis and Alu-Tech construction to maintain a 3500kg MTPLM. This weight allows it to be driven on a standard UK car licence while providing a generous 520kg payload for touring equipment.
- Two-berth capacity with a front lounge and parallel settee layout.
- Built on the AL-KO AMC chassis with Alu-Tech construction.
- 3500kg MTPLM allows for driving on a standard UK Category B licence.
- Spacious end washroom featuring a separate shower cubicle.
- Kitchen equipped with a Thetford three-burner gas hob.
Worth knowing: The 6.75m length may exceed the dimensions of standard parking bays. Limited to two belted travel seats, preventing additional passengers. Kitchen workspace is reduced when the gas hob is in active use.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bailey Approach 635 | 2 | 3500 kg | 6.75 m | £38,000 to £52,000 |

The Bailey Approach 635 occupies a specific niche for couples who value a 6.75m length to accommodate a larger end washroom. While alternatives like the Auto-Sleepers Broadway EB or Auto-Trail Imala 615 offer similar 2-berth layouts on a 3500kg chassis, they do so in shorter footprints of 6.32m and 6.34m respectively. The Bailey provides a significant 520kg payload, which is a key consideration for those planning longer tours compared to more compact rivals.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the 520kg payload carefully to maintain stability on the AL-KO chassis.
- Regularly check the tyre pressures on the premium brand tyres for safety.
- Clean the Ecocamel shower head periodically to maintain aerobic pressure.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Attempting to carry more than two people despite the lounge size.
- Underestimating the 2.78m height when navigating low obstacles.
Worth knowing: Always confirm the exact payload remaining after adding personal equipment. Ensure the vehicle is level when using the parallel settee bed conversion.
