Rewind to 2011 and our reviewer Alan Wright and his partner are touring around with their Ace Supreme Twinstar. This caravan had been on the market since 2005, but it was still going strong, offering plenty of space for the two of them on their travels.
Mr Wright had bought the caravan new and was impressed with the way it towed. He liked the Ace Supreme Twinstar so much that he had thought about replacing like with like, but the Swift Group stopped making this model some years ago.
As well as the comfy fixed bed and well laid out seating area, our reviewer was impressed with the size of the fridge freezer. Being able to stock up well before a trip helps to make things go smoothly along the way.
Unfortunately, the economics of taking the caravan abroad did not work out for Mr Wright and his partner. They found it cheaper to fly after breakdown cover for Europe and all the other expenses were taken into consideration.
So, the caravan only got one trip away to the sun, but it did not squash the enthusiasm of the reviewer. He rated in four out of five in every category, ranging from equipment and comfort, through space and practicality right up to quality and reliability.
And for the final word, we return to Mr Wright. He said: “We now tow with a Kia Sedona 2.9 diesel and it returns about 30 mpg with the van on, so not bad.”
