The new modified A-Frame on the BPW Swing V-Tec chassis is the main change to the exterior of the Corona for 2006.

The new position of the jockey wheel aids manoeuvrability, whilst the easy action handbrake could not be simpler to operate.

A new A-Frame cover neatly conceals the jockey wheel when retracted and gives a cleaner finish to the front of the caravan. When not in use, the hitch cable plugs fit snugly into the bespoke recessed mouldings on the cover that help protect the pins from the elements.

At the rear of the caravan is a new, brighter, and more highly reflective rear visibility panel to aid night time safety whilst towing.

New green and gold check sprung upholstery complemented by Capiro gold curtains and pelmets give the interior of the Corona a modern, bright and lively feel. Further enhanced with upholstered curtain tiebacks and coordinating gold and green trim scatter cushions.

The internal veneered furniture is made from the new lighter and more distinctive Aswald Ash, whilst all worktops are finished with decorative laminate.

Another simple and practical improvement is the re-design of the occasional table top on the front chest of drawers. Rather than having to remove items from the top of the unit to flip over the table top, it simply slides out from underneath and drops neatly into place (parallel lounge models only).

A new Horrex full door fly screen supplies practicality whilst the un-tensioned, easy slide action is a major improvement.

The Kitchen

The new Spinflo 3 burner hob with large high speed multi-function burner gives a greater range of options when using larger pans for cooking. Add to this the new Prima Mark3 oven and the cooking of any meal is easily accommodated.

Food preparation is also given a helping hand with the addition of the new space saving sink with bespoke silver washing up bowl and removable drainer, freeing up more work surface when you need it the most.
