A new caravan range is hitching up to launch on the touring market after Elddis announced that they had teamed up with Marquis to build a brand new line of lightweight tourers.
Marquis have been in the motorhome industry for almost 40 years, but having only recently moved into the world of touring caravans, were keen to build on their success by adding another range to their garage.
Joining forces with Elddis, they have now created the new Marquis Majestic.
Built exclusively for Marquis by Elddis, the new range is based on the Durham-based manufacturers' Autoquest brand and brings with it five different layouts.
With many similarities to the Elddis Xplore range, Marquis Majestic caravans offer the same high quality but come with a bespoke design and equipment set-up that is exclusive to Marquis.
Discussing the partnership, Alan Buckwell, sales director at Marquis Motorhomes and Marquis Caravans said that he was "delighted with the opportunity to build upon the already successful working relationship with Elddis".
"This is a major opportunity for the discerning caravanner to own a high specification caravan at an affordable price," said Chris Whitham, Elddis' commercial director.
Marquis excel in all areas which help make retailers successful, including the presentation of their premises and products as well as the quality of their people and services, he added.
"As such, [Marquis] are in a position to offer customers the quality of service they should expect, whether purchasing or servicing their Elddis product."
The range comes in new and unique layouts and is light enough to be towed by most cars while also boasting a collection of unique features that are sure to make it popular with caravanners.
These include bespoke graphics and upholstery designs, as well as stylish alloy wheels with matching silver skirts, spats and hitch cover.
The new range will launch at Marquis dealerships in Lancashire, Sussex and Northants, but if you're keen to get a peek at it you can see it at next month's Caravan and Motorhome Show at Manchester's Event City, which runs between January 19th and 22nd.
