| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bailey Approach Autograph 765 | 6 | 3850 kg | 7.45 m | £45,000 to £82,000 |

The Bailey Approach Autograph 765 occupies a specific niche for families needing six travel seats and six berths within a 7.45m footprint. While the 3850kg MTPLM necessitates a C1 licence, it allows for the inclusion of the heavy Alde heating system and a 570kg payload. In comparison, alternatives like the Benimar Tessoro or Auto-Trail Tribute T 736 offer six berths on a 3500kg chassis, which avoids licence restrictions but may result in different equipment levels or payload capacities. The 765 remains a robust choice for those prioritising the dual-lounge layout and premium heating.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the 570kg payload carefully when travelling with a full capacity of six adults.
- Regularly check the seals on the large panoramic windows and skylights.
- Ensure the Peugeot Boxer chassis is serviced according to manufacturer intervals.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Attempting to drive the vehicle on a standard B category licence.
- Overlooking the 2.49m width when navigating narrow rural lanes.
Worth knowing: Payload calculations must include the weight of all six passengers and water.
