A high-capacity family motorhome with 160BHP performance.
The Bailey Autograph 79-6 160BHP is a 7.93m coachbuilt motorhome designed for large groups, featuring six berths and six travel seats. Built on an AL-KO AMC chassis with a 160BHP engine, it provides a 712kg payload and premium amenities including Alde heating and a longitudinal drop-down bed.
- Six-berth capacity with safety-tested travel seats for six passengers.
- Peugeot 2.2 BlueHDi 160BHP engine on an AL-KO AMC chassis.
- Rear U-shaped lounge and central pullman-style dinette layout.
- Alde hydronic central heating and 100 watt solar panel.
- Significant 712kg payload with a 4250kg MTPLM.
Worth knowing: A C1 category driving license is required due to the 4250kg MTPLM. The 7.93m length and 2.49m width may present challenges in narrow lanes.
Buying a Bailey Autograph 79-6 160BHP
Who it suits
- • Large families requiring six dedicated travel seats and berths.
- • Winter tourers who benefit from the Alde hydronic heating system.
- • Drivers who prefer the stability of an AL-KO ultra-low profile chassis.
Reasons to consider it
- • The 160BHP engine provides sufficient power for a vehicle of this scale.
- • The rear U-shaped lounge offers a large social area separate from the dinette.
- • A generous 712kg payload allows for significant luggage and equipment.
What to check
- • Confirm the operation of the longitudinal drop-down bed mechanism.
- • Verify the service history of the Peugeot 2.2 BlueHDi 160BHP engine.
- • Inspect the Alu-Tech bodyshell for integrity during a damp check.
- • Ensure the Alde central heating system has been maintained according to schedule.
Worth knowing: Fuel consumption is typically higher than smaller van conversions. The 4250kg weight limit restricts drivers to those with C1 entitlement.
Compare the Bailey Autograph 79-6 160BHP with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bailey Autograph 79-6 160BHP | 6 | 4250 kg | 7.93 m | £62,000 to £95,000 |
| Bailey Autograph 81-6 | 6 | 4250 kg | 8.12 m | £89,995 to £105,995 |
| Bailey Adamo | 6 | 3500 kg | 7.49 m | £58,000 to £82,000 |
The Bailey Autograph 79-6 160BHP sits at the top of the Autograph range, offering a specific balance of 160BHP power and a 4250kg chassis. While alternatives like the Adamo offer a 3500kg MTPLM for standard licenses, they lack the 7.93m length and specific rear-lounge layout found here. The Autograph 81-6 provides even more length at 8.12m, whereas the 79-6 remains a focused choice for those needing maximum berths within a sub-8m footprint.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the 100 watt solar panel to maintain battery health during periods of off-grid use.
- Plan routes carefully to avoid weight-restricted bridges or narrow urban parking.
- Regularly check the high-gloss cabinetry and slate-grey worktops for wear.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Underestimating the 2.49m width when navigating rural roads or narrow campsites.
- • Exceeding the 4250kg MTPLM by failing to account for the weight of six adult passengers.
Worth knowing: Always verify the specific MTPLM on the vehicle plate as specifications can vary by year.
