Conway Crusader Folding Camper
(Sleeping Capacity 6 persons)
Conway Crusader Overview
The 2007 Crusader is the last of a
dying breed I'm sorry to say. This is the last of the
Conway's to have the famous conumatic opening
system. The crusaders beds slide out on set up but you
do have to have very strong arms or a little help to
lift the first bar to ease opening, as I struggled on my
own I wasn't sure if its because its new and stiff or it
is generally this stiff. Once the beds are out and
locked into place, I managed on my own to set up alone
in about 15 mins so it is as easy as they say. I
managed this in the time it took my husband to fill the
aquaroll and toilet.

There is a wardrobe and below is a 3
way fridge on the left on entering the cabin
area and also on the left is a king-size bed in
situ. In front on entering is a
washroom with Thretford toilet and sink, small but
functional. The Kitchen in directly in front with hob
with 3 burners and separate grill and oven, next to is a
sink with hot and cold running water. Plenty of
cupboard space. Built in Fan heater for camping in the
colder weather and also a CD / MP3. On the far right is
a double bed. The seating like a caravan can be made
into another double bed. The curtains and linings all
match and for ease of setup the bedroom sections can be
left in place, only the central roof lining needs to be
removed. |

caravan
No pegging out
|

The Cost
Expect to pay around £9300
new from a dealer so expensive, but well worth the
expense for the benefits of a caravan without the hassle
of storage
The Verdict
Ease of use, towing and storing,
although new they are almost as expensive as a
budget caravan these unit offer something different
in that they can be towed by smaller cars and are
much easer to store at home, avoiding costly storage
fees
