Any one got CURRENT info on Ranger caravans. I know that the company was deregistered a few years ago and have read a heap of stuff online. I found a couple with single beds - would like to do a swap but just not sure if the company is ok now. The one I saw was a 2011 model so I assume they are up and running again...
