What do you get inside the Expedition?
There is no shortage of room inside the 19ft Manta Ray Expedition with a widely spread out layout and plenty of natural light through windows on both sides. At night, the LED mood lighting does an excellent job at lighting up the cabin with ease.
As you step inside, you’re greeted by a storage cupboard with a bench top to store your shoes and other belonging to leave the mess out.
The white bench top which has plenty of space for food prep complements the overhead cupboards perfectly along with the black stainless-steel sink that is easy to keep clean. Kitchen appliances includes a mini grill cooktop, 171L fridge, microwave with multiple 240V outlets to power extra appliances. Storage won’t be problem in this caravan with slide out drawers and cupboards to store all your belongings.
The spacious U-shaped lounge area can be used for multiple purposes with an extended tabletop, leatherette upholstery and pull-out drawers underneath the seats to accommodate a couple. The large window, reading lights and electrical outlets gives this space an inviting ambience.
The queen bed is large enough for 2 people, with reading lights on the bed heads and wireless chargers in the pigeon holes on both sides of the bed. The side wardrobes have plenty of space to store your coats with the shelves being easily removable. Standard on the Manta Ray range is a 28” SMART TV with a TV antenna, allowing you to sit back and enjoy your time on the road.
The full ensuite offered in the Manta Ray range comes with a ceramic curved basin with black tapware, mirror, toilet and a full size shower with towel rails and a glazed door.
What do you get on the outside of the Expedition?
Same as the inside, the Manta Ray Expedition has many external features including an annex track. 17ft awning, picnic table, gas bayonet & hose, mains pressure inlet, external shower, Fusion external sound panel and a reversing camera to help get you out of the tight spaces.
The pull-out step, curved grab handles and external LED lights make it easy and safe to get in & out of the caravan.
Storage once again won’t be an issue with a double tool box with 2 gas bottles up the front and a LED-lit tunnel boot to store more.
