Got it this time. Apparently, the alloy wheels do not come with it, they are from last years Bretagne.

Hi Mickey,

are you looking at swapping? do you work at Bailey?I am looking at getting one of these, looking at the NEC, thinking of either this or a 5 berth as when other couples come with us, the bunks in the 550/6 are too short

I wonder what the weight restrictions would be on the middle bunk, whether an adult could sleep on it. does the seat on the other side make up to a bed as well? sorry mate, but since bailey announced this van - I've been really excited!

The side dinette makes up into a single, when trying the seating out, two adults need to sit at the back while two children will fit in the other side. I don't work for Bailey but travelled from N.I. to the Gmex just to see this van. Its just a pity this layout was not out when I bought my 550/6

mmm I agree, however I thought I would like the 550/6 if it wasn't for that wardrobe. I wonder if I coould take it out  / or do what I am thinking of doing and that is to cut a hole in the wardrobe for my feet to go in! a bit of a side pocket.. Bit annoyed at Bailey - I asked when it would be out and they said it would be premiered at NEC - manchester only an hour from here, and I would have preferred to have gon there.

Looking great, not that we need a van for three kids (Hubby would be v worried if I suggested this), love the three bunk idea though, v clever.  Having said that I wouldn't swap our 550/6, love it to bits.

Oh wow! That look's lovely.  Very unusual.  I'd say its ideal for a family where the 3rd child is still very young, you wouldn't worry about them falling off the bed.  Be a bit tight crawling in and out when they get older though.

Hi All just thought i'd drop a note to say that we ordered our 1st 540/6 in Feb, we have had a letter from our dealer that the van will be ready for collection 15th april.

We are picking it up on sat 19th april can't wait.  We have booked our first caravan trip for May bank holiday
