Road to Reales
Following the recent introduction of the Bailey Adamo XL DL, we put this spacious 8-metre-long motorhome through its paces.
Departing from our Bristol-based production facility, the route took us through France, Spain, and Andorra, covering a wide range of driving conditions and elevations.
Over the course of 11 days, we assessed the vehicle’s handling, payload capacity, and on-board systems while operating at near-maximum load, carrying all crew equipment and supplies. The journey also included key stopovers for a photoshoot in some of Europe’s most striking landscapes.

The Vehicles
Adamo XL-DL
The star of the Road to Reales!
With its increased payload, the Adamo XL-DL had all the capacity needed to carry the essential kit for the journey.
The two dropdown beds provided a smart and space-saving sleeping setup for the crew, freeing up living space during the day for cooking, relaxing, and functioning as the ideal support vehicle. Thoughtfully designed for both practicality and comfort, the Adamo XL-DL proved to be the ultimate companion for a European adventure.
Something new is in the horizon...
While in Spain and Andorra, we also filmed and photographed a brand-new Bailey model. We’re not quite ready to reveal it, but stay tuned!
