Caravan review: Safari Delta 21

John Ford checked out the Safari Delta and discovered a luxurious van without the weight to match

Not everyone wants a loud and dirty offroader, even if they plan to travel far. Plenty of travelling couples instead embrace the comforts of a well-equipped caravan park, as can be witnessed in the many popular venues along the North Queensland coast in winter. 

The annual migration to anywhere warmer than Noosa sees thousands of colder climate couples pack the van and hit the road, and although much of the Bruce Highway is pretty rough, you don't need an offroad van to handle the trip.

Safari vans are produced in Melbourne but have enjoyed an exclusive partnership with Trounce Caravans in Ballarat for more than 15 years. Trounce Caravans is a family run business with two brothers at the helm, and according to marketing manager Kris Bird, the Delta 21 with club lounge has been the most popular model in the range over the last 12 months, thanks to couples wanting a van that can handle extended times away while enjoying plenty of room and comfort.

THE EXTERIOR

Smooth composite panelling along the sides has the contemporary appeal that is so well accepted because it looks great and has better thermal properties than raised profile aluminium. The disadvantage is that the composite material is around 80kg heavier than the thinner aluminium strips in a van of this size. Still, it's also more hail and damage resistant, and in the whirl of swings and roundabouts, it generally comes out on top. 

The composite continues over both ends, and a high panel of checkerplate all the way round is probably more for show than protection. Graphics of distressed wheel tracks set in dark panels of stylised carbon fibre along the sides and across the back break up the large areas of white but might be a little incongruous on a touring van.

I noticed in the yard that none of the Safari vans on display had either a front window or front boot, and this is a deliberate decision for two reasons. Firstly, these are notoriously difficult to seal against water ingress, and secondly, the front boot takes precious internal space. So instead, a tunnel boot runs under the bed and offers plenty of functional storage.

A 50mm AL-KO ball hitch connects to the tow vehicle, and two 9kg gas bottles sit high on the A-frame. Underneath is an FP ladder-style chassis from 150 x 50mm Australian steel with a Duragal treatment. The suspension is Simplicity load sharing tandem leaf springs rated to 3200kg, and while the system is mainly directed to main road travel, it will handle some rougher ground as long as you drive to the conditions — in other words, keep your speed down. 

Brakes are 10in drums at all axles, and wheels are smart looking 15in black spoked alloys shod with road tyres. 

Along the passenger side is a locking fold-down picnic table with the standard 12V TV and 240V outlets, while overhead are two bright LED lights. A single spare sits on a three-arm bar at the back, and a safety Dave rear view camera is standard.

THE INTERIOR

I really like the interior design of the Safari, where the timber features blend with satin finishes for a very welcoming feel. It was only 10 or so years back that the industry moved away from the traditional build of wood to a mix of bright joinery. The current trend seems to be going back to timber highlights, and it’s a real winner for me.

The rear door layout places the bed in the most popular place — up front and away from the entry. A full-width ensuite runs across the back, leaving the central space as a roomy relaxing and dining area. The review version of the Safari Delta 21 has a club lounge along the passenger side and the kitchen opposite. 

Walls and ceiling are finished in white, while dark grey cabinets and upholstery along with white cupboard faces add to the modern theme. The joinery is neatly finished, and built in lightweight ply and includes piano hinges, sturdy metal drawer runners and positive lock catches.

Because the van is longer than usual, it has enough length to include a roomy club or U-shaped lounge, which is big enough to comfortably seat five when extras call around for a drink, or for a couple to spread out when watching TV. 

An optional ‘Black Pack’ consists of black sink and tap wear in both the kitchen and bathroom as well as a black tinted door at the shower. It also provides for the face of the 190L three-way fridge, although Kris tells me it’s the only colour available at present from Dometic, so all vans have a black fridge. 

The bathroom has plenty of room to move and has a crisp feeling and good ventilation from overhead fans. A 3kg washer sits under the timber vanity.

Included in the kitchen is a gas/electric cooktop with grill. Bench space is limited, but the cover over the stove adds to the preparation area as usual. Storage, however, is excellent with a floor-to-ceiling pantry next to the fridge and lots of room in overhead cupboards. 

The north-south bed has easy access from each side and the standard features of side and overhead storage. Storage underneath is shared with the tunnel boot but leaves enough room for extra bedding and so on.

SELF-SUFFICIENCY

While not a dedicated bush camper, there is enough water and power to stay off-grid when you want to. The fridge and hot water run on gas, and a 160W solar panel charges a single 120Ah battery for enough power to run lights and the TV for days. 

Charging is through a solar charger and the excellent (and Aussie-made) BMPro Genius 30-35 battery management system. All the electronics are beautifully installed in an overhead cupboard and include water tank gauges and a sound/DVD system. 

An added advantage of this onboard technology is that you can save a few dollars because you don't really need a powered site in a caravan park — as long as you don’t have to have the Ibis 4 air conditioner running, that is.

Weighing in with a tare of 2370kg and an ATM of 3200kg, the maximum payload is a generous 830kg — even with full gas and water tanks, you have around 600kg left to load the van. But reduce the amount of cargo, and you could keep the weight under 3t and make the van legal for several mid-size tow vehicles. 

For our review, we hitched to a Jeep Cherokee with a 3L V6 turbodiesel. Before heading to Lake Burrumbeet, we had a run down the motorway at the legal 110km/h with the Delta sitting smoothly behind. The van was just as impressive along country roads and the dirt tracks around the lake, where it towed silently and smoothly without any vices.

Every van is weighed when it arrives at the dealership, so you know its plated weight is correct once any accessories are fitted. The Safari range all comes with a three-year manufacturer warranty, and by all accounts, the Trounce team has a decent reputation for fixing any issues.

The standout feature of the Delta 21 is the roomy club lounge. It adds a level of comfort and homeliness for couples wanting to spend lengthy time travelling or camped up in the van.

Price is $65,490, including the $1000 optional Black Pack. That’s good value in today’s market for a van of this size and level of quality. However, it’s worth keeping in mind that, like every manufacturer at present, build times have blown out for months ahead. 

The Delta 21 will suit couples who like the idea of a van with room to move but without the weight of a big offroader. It will be most at home in caravan parks but will follow you into most coastal national parks without complaint as long as you drive to the conditions. 

DON'T BLOW A FUSE

I noticed on the BMPro battery management system that only the fuse for the television was marked. When I asked Kris why this was so, he said it was the only circuit that gave trouble. Owners like to disconnect the television when travelling, so it doesn't swing around and damage the van or the unit itself. He reckons that many owners in all brands will experience blown fuses with their NCE television, which is common in many vans. The base of the panel for the various plugs is metal, and if you plug the 12V lead into its socket but miss and hit the base plate, you will short out the TV and blow a fuse. You can solve this by being more careful, of course, but more practically, by never plugging the fuse in after travel when the power is connected. The fix is simple, and it's a wonder other dealers haven't noticed the issue.

Made in Stroud: a brief history of the Safari caravan

Leisure centre to close temporarily

Much-loved hair salon set to close as owner retires after 42 years, cannabis factory located in stonehouse, video: coffin carried through town to mark ‘death of compassion’, labour activists: why we defected to the green party.

From the 1940s to the early 80s Stroud was home to one of the country’s premier caravan manufacturers, Safari. The company was founded in 1946 by Jim Pearman and operated from a workshop in Cainscross where the Co-op store now stands.

In the early days the company produced just one model, the Minor, a nine-foot two-berth caravan. The company moved from Cainscross to Bowbridge in around 1957 or 58, to a 23,000 square-foot site at the former Eagle Brewery (behind the British Oak pub on London Road), as former employee Mike Lane recalls: “I started there in December 1958 and the company hadn’t been there very long.

“I worked as a polisher – it was the best place I ever worked – we had fun, they were a good bunch of lads and we earned good money, too.”

Safari caravans earned a reputation as a quality product, and the hand-made construction was carried out to a high standard. The interiors were made by skilled craftsmen: “Fittings were built on solid oak frames and doors were either oak veneer on plywood or solid oak,” said Mike.

Brian Miller, who runs the Classic Safari Caravans group on Facebook, which has 990 members, said: “They are great caravans, always in the top three of British caravan manufacturers.

“At their height they employed 40 staff and were producing seven caravans a week. It’s the only classic caravan with real style – the distinctive mollycroft roof design – the raised section – started in early railway carriages and carried on to showmen’s caravans. Safari was the last manufacturer to use that style.”

“They were the best in the world,” said Mike, “The 17/S model, a 17-foot four-berth caravan, is the ‘Rolls-Royce’. It was the most expensive (it cost £8,129 in 1982) and had an end bedroom. It had thick carpet, good upholstery – all top-notch stuff.

“Safari was all coach built, so it was twice the price of a Bailey caravan.”

However, the industry was changing and by the 1960s and 70s many smaller makers were being bought out. “Sprite started buying lots of independent manufacturers,” said Brian.

“A company called Cosalt bought Safari in 1968 for an estimated £180,000 and production continued in Stroud until 1982 when operations were moved to Grimsby. By 1985 all the traditional manufacturers had been taken over by big operations.”

It’s estimated 6,000 Safari caravans were produced between 1948 and 1982. The classic Safari design was replaced in 1981 by the XL range, a Safari in name only. The last caravan to carry the Safari name was launched in 1985, built on the lines of an Abbey Executive caravan.

The Eagle Mill Close housing development was built on the site of the factory in the 1990s, and there are now very few clues it ever stood there.

There is still a solid fan base for Safari caravans: “I’d suggest around 500 still exist,” said Brian, who compiles a register of the serial numbers of existing Safaris. “There are a couple in Australia, exported by English owners, and also caravans in New Zealand, the USA, Canada, Sweden, Belgium and Holland.”

Until the pandemic struck there were regular classic caravan shows around the country, and also mainland Europe, with Safari caravans featuring prominently.

Brian’s Facebook group provides advice and support for owners, as well as a wealth of historical information about Safari, and the number still used and loved by their owners is testament to the quality of the caravans, the youngest of which is fast approaching middle age.

SAFARI TAMER

The outback is calling.

Purpose built for off-road caravanning

Get off the beaten track! The Roadstar Safari Tamer is perfect for couples with a keen sense of adventure and a burning desire to get off the beaten track and see more of Australia the most people could imagine.  A true off-road caravan, the award-winning Safari Tamer has definitely earned its reputation with incredible attention to detail, meticulous fit and finish and so much more.

Built for safety as much as adventure, the Safari Tamer includes a fully insulated aluminium-clad frame, Sisalation® insulation in the ceiling, and comes with two spare tyres for any off-road emergencies. With galvanised under-floor sheeting and heavy duty galvanised terrain protection bars on its sides, this van can take whatever Australia can throw at it. The Safari Tamer also comes with rear skid and 4.0-tonne shackle anchor points, safety guards on the A-frame for stone protection, as well as front and rear-mounted adjustable LED lamps to provide light when setting up camp in the bush or in an emergency situation. The composite paneling and signature Roadstar decals also offer a modern touch of class to accompany this rugged and robust caravan.  The external entertainment hatch and speakers will allow you to enjoy a movie or sport on the TV in the alfresco setting of your choice – just choose a site to set the scene!

However, this tough unit has a much softer side. The modern plywood CNC architectural furniture is the height of contemporary design and innovation; the tri-fold table and new dual density comfort club lounge take pride of place in the interior. This is accompanied by a queen-size bedroom flooded with natural light, made possible by the extra-large, Euro-style double-glazed windows.  The kitchen is equipped with modern looking brand name appliances, soft close drawers and premium laminates.  Reverse cycle heating and cooling will keep you comfortable while you explore and the full range of entertainment options including the TV/DVD combo and Fusion entertainment system will keep you going in the event of rain.

The Dexter Torflex suspension on single axle caravans or the ALKO beam axle rocker suspension on tandem axle caravans, ensure a smooth and safe ride whilst you are on the road to your next destination. The Supagal chassis made from BHP Steel has been built by engineers with over 40 years of experience, to give you the peace of mind on the road that you deserve.

Travel is a wealth that accumulates with every mile behind you. It’s the culmination of thousands of simple pleasures. It feels limitless when it’s shared with other adventurers.

“Travelling in an Alto means discovering stunning landscapes, enjoying activities everywhere we visit and meeting friendly people—all in total comfort and with ease of use. It makes us want to set off again and again, because we know that whatever the weather, we’ll be comfortable. It lets us bring outdoor landscapes indoors. In short, it’s the ideal piece of camping equipment, at least for us.”

“With our Safari Condo, we can travel alone or with friends. Whether we’re visiting family, attending events, or discovering new places, we feel right at home wherever we go! The size of the vehicle never stops us from getting around or staying anywhere.”

"Our Alto has absolutely changed our lives. We have traveled across the country, exploring state and national parks, sightseeing in wonderful cities, and visiting distant loved ones. Its smart design provides us with all the comforts of home, even when we’re in the middle of nowhere. Best purchase ever."
