BAILEY
CARAVAN
MANUFACTURE VIDEO
In 2006, The Caravan Club ordered a brand new fleet of caravans from
Bailey of Bristol to use on their nationwide Practical Caravanning
& Caravan Manoeuvering Courses. The 38 custom-built Bailey Discovery caravans are
now being used by Members and Non-members to gain practical driving experience
and to develop outfit manoeuvering skills.
The total manufacturing process was filmed using time-lapse photography to give
an idea of what it takes to manufacture caravans.
The video condenses approximately two and a half hours production time into
just 2 minutes 18 seconds. Please click here
to visit the site.
[Please
note you require QuickTime Player version 7.0 to view the video.] |
