For over 75 years Airstream have been producing these iconic ‘silver bullet’ tourers exclusively for the American market. But now, Continental fans of Airstream Caravans can chose from a range models specifically engineered to European standards.
Using the same American build technology, the European range retains the famous ‘fuselage body on wheels’, but components and equipment inside have been tailored to comply with European safety standards and road conditions. Despite its heavier US heritage, the Airstream Europe family has been engineered match lighter towcars and the smallest Airstream Bambi model is light enough to be towed behind a VW Golf.
Caravan Times editor Marcus Dubois talks to Michael Hold of Airstream Europe to learn more about the heritage and development of this iconic brand.
