Compare the Bailey Orion with similar models
| Model | Berths | MTPLM | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bailey Orion | 6 | 1300 kg | 5.40 m | £8,000 to £18,000 |
| Bailey Pursuit | 6 | 1350 kg | 5.90 m | £12,000 to £25,000 |
| Bailey Pegasus | 6 | 1450 kg | 6.20 m | £12,000 to £32,000 |
The Bailey Orion occupies a specific niche as a lightweight, Alu-Tech constructed caravan. When compared to the Bailey Pursuit or Pegasus, it offers a more compact 5.4m length and a lower 1300kg MTPLM, making it easier to manage for those with smaller tow cars. While the Compass Corona and Coachman Amara provide similar berth options, the Orion's focus on a modern aesthetic and specific weight-saving construction distinguishes it in the used market. It remains a balanced choice for those prioritising towability over maximum internal volume.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Tips for Bailey Orion owners
- Utilise the generous storage solutions to keep the 2.2m wide interior uncluttered.
- Make use of the large front lounge double bed conversion for maximum sleeping comfort.
- Regularly inspect the AL-KO chassis components to maintain towing stability.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Exceeding the 250kg payload by installing too many heavy aftermarket accessories.
- • Assuming all layouts offer the same living space despite the 5.4m external length.
Worth knowing: Always verify the exact MTPLM and payload for your specific model year before loading.
Alternatives to the Bailey Orion
The Pursuit offers a longer 5.9m body and a higher 1350kg MTPLM for those needing more interior volume than the Orion.
Bailey PegasusThe Pegasus provides a more premium specification with a 6.2m length and 1450kg MTPLM for larger towing vehicles.
