A selection of nine real caravan models whose names raise eyebrows. Among them: Compass Rallye 636, reminiscent of a Peugeot hot hatch but actually a six-berth giant; Swift Elegance Grande 860, whose 'elegance' contrasts with the need to empty the toilet; Freedom Jetstream Twin Sport, a name more fitting for an American hot rod than a Polish trailer; Adria Alpina Mississippi, whose stripes suggest a BMW Alpina copyright infringement; Coachman VIP 675, where VIP status poorly matches camping; Elddis Crusader Hurricane, named after a storm you wouldn't want to be in; Buccaneer Bermuda, named after a destination you wouldn't take such a caravan to; Swift Basecamp 6, marketed for adventurers but unsuited for off-road; and Campmaster King, whose 'royal' name belies its tiny size.
