RV REVIEW OUTSIDE EVORA The Caria Evora sports composite aluminium cladding over an aluminium frame. It rides on a SupaGal chassis, roller rocker suspension and 15in alloy wheels. With its half-height black checkerplate up front, full-width front window, and checkerplate along the sides, it is undeniably an attention-grabbing caravan. I really liked the angular front profile. There’s a tunnel boot accessible from either side of the van, while just behind is another tunnel that can only be accessed from the nearside or by lifting the mattress inside the van. I’m not sure why it doesn’t have offside access but it mightn’t be a bad thing if it did, considering the 100Ah deep-cycle battery is deep inside this boot, along the offside wall. “ THE MORE I LOOKED AT THIS VAN, THE MORE I COULD SEE ITS APPEAL.” The dealer, Canterbury Caravans has added a number of features to this van, including a grey water tank, a 150W solar panel, a rear flyscreen, and an additional skylight. Each, I reckon, will add significantly to the enjoyment factor. SUMMING UP The more I looked at this van, the more I could see why it would appeal to young, adventure- seeking families. The Caria Evora has good looks, a practical purpose… and a certain X-factor. gorv.com.au 31
