Premium caravan buyers demand the very best, not only in terms of specification, but also when it comes to safety and security aspects.

With this in mind, Bailey of Bristol has pulled out all the stops to make sure that their new Unicorn Series II range is safer on the road and well-protected against theft.

In this video, we talk to Bailey chief Nick Howard, who explains that these caravans are often targeted by thieves due to their desirability, so the designers have to go the extra mile with added security measures.

We also talk to Steve Budding of Wheel Solutions, who worked with Bailey to come up with a brand-new wheel bolt, which offers added durability. Steve also gives some helpful tips on when and how you should torque your caravan's wheel nuts.

Prices in the 2013 Bailey Unicorn range start at just £18,895 and MTPLM weights range from 1,350kg for the two-berth Seville layout, to 1,686kg for the twin-axle Unicorn Barcelona. For more details click here
