I hae never heard of a
Kingston Bell and I have been on the road for near 7 years. They may be great ,,,, but I do not know, I suggest you Google the brand to see if people have reported issues with them.
My advise will always be - stay with the long term brands who can demonstrate a good track record for reliability and service. Buy the best you can afford amongst these brands and there is a fair chance you will get a reliable rig.
There are quite a few lemons out there and proportionally more of these in the 2nd hand market as people try and get rid of them.
Best of luck
John

Yes thank you
John I think you're right.I would like a van with east west bed to get loo away from kitchen which as far as I can find means a 21' model, but THE driver doesn't want to tow anything too heavy.Have looked at a second hand Regent Roystan which I quite liked.Going to
Newcastle show tomorrow so hopefully will come to some conclusion,Bev

Caravans West is the name by which coromal vic was previously known as.The principal's name is Allan Bell. To my knowledge they previously sold Coromal vans only. I would
hazard a guess but I would assume that
Kingston Bell is now their own brand.
We purchased a Coromal van from them some time ago and found the dealer Allan Bell to be qiute good to deal with.Hope this is of some help
Regards
