We are looking to go back to towing a small van need something with single axle and light weight to get it in and out of our steep driveway in a court. Can anyone tell us about a small van we have seen called a Fusion Seaspray it looks like just what we need - but never heard of them before and where or who makes them.

Hi Maureen
It seems that Fusion was one of a number of branded caravans built by Paradise in
Melbourne. Are they still in business?
It the one you are looking at new or older?

The van we are looking at is a 2009 - so I would think warranty periods would be up looks to be a
well made little van very neat and tidy - however the concern would be getting it serviced I suppose.

I think you need to re-define small.
A 17.6 van is not small in my book.

Quote "however the concern would be getting it serviced I suppose."
I see no problem. It will probably have a chassis from one of the major chassis specialists and if not the axles will be from one of the few suppliers. Windows, doors and hatches will probably come from Camec or Coast to Coast. The PC items will be from one of the few suppliers. The rest of the van will be cabinet work that can be fixed with hand tools. If a van is Oz made then there will be nothing to service on it that the average repairer can't handle.
If it's in good condition and
well priced, go for it.

Hi Bill Hi Peter thanks for your input - 17.6 is smaller than the 19 - 24ft vans which with our situation living on a
hill with quite a tight turn out of the driveway - 17ft or therabouts with a single axle works much better for us getting in and out.
Yes I believe the Fusion vans were made in Australia so thanks for the information we should not have a problem with service issues.
