Video Review 2015: Jayco Silverline
The new Silverline is a handsome looking van, with its moulded fibreglass front, smooth walls and flush windows – an image befitting its top tier status in the Jayco range.
It’s always interesting to note just how much space a slide-out offers in a caravan. But, in the case of our BAV vans, it’s also interesting that this was the only van which had a slide-out. Apart from anything else, slide-outs give flexibility in layouts, and alternatives to the standard front bedroom design become more practical.
Measuring Up
