| RV REVIEW MORE INFO CANTERBURY CARAVANS RATINGS canterburycaravans.com.au The combo bathroom is directly opposite the kitchen, between the large fridge and the bedroom wardrobe. The marine plywood floor is covered in a heavy-duty vinyl, including in the rear section. I’m told that it’s robust enough to withstand the scrapes and knocks that it will inevitably be subjected to by loading and unloading kayaks, dirt bikes, etc. OUTSIDE EVORA The Caria Evora HF20 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. 8 gorv.com.au FIT AND FINISH 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. 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 HF20 has good looks, a practical purpose… and a certain X-factor.
