Capron – other models: the collective page of Sunlight and Carado caravans outside the named ranges, C and CARADO ranges, 720 to 1,260 kg unladen weight, up to 1.6 t gross weight
This page gathers the Capron caravans the register could not assign to a named range – Capron builds caravans and motorhomes under the Sunlight and Carado brand names and lists the caravan models here under the codes C and Carado. Type designations such as C 400, C 505 S or Carado C164 usually give the length or floor plan in the running number, and the letters L, K, D and V distinguish floor-plan variants with different berth counts and kitchen layouts. As trailers, the caravans fall into EU vehicle class O2, trailers with a gross weight between 750 kg and 3.5 t.

The register lists here 58 versions with unladen weights from 720 to 1,260 kg, gross weights from 900 to 1,600 kg and widths from 2,100 to 2,350 mm; lengths from 5,430 to 7,970 mm are recorded for part of the models as well.
Sunlight and Carado are among the high-volume German caravan brands in the entry and mid-range segments and compete with Hobby, Knaus, Weinsberg and Dethleffs; the low unladen weight of the models also makes them attractive for tow cars with a limited towing capacity.
On a used example, damp in the roof and around windows and wall penetrations, the condition of the drawbar and overrun brake, axle and tyres, the gas system and fridge, and the seals of windows and roof hatches count; spare parts run through the Sunlight and Carado service network and independent caravan workshops.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
