PARTNER SUPPLIERS
What TORUS RV Owners Are Saying
"We are extremely happy with our 21ft 6 family triples bunk van we purchased. The service we received was amazing from first inspections of the caravans to the handover of our van purchased.
Tash, Chris and Steve and all their team were friendly & happy to answer any questions and gave attention to detail and pride in their workmanship.
Highly recommend them."
Sue P
"We have bought 2 Torus Caravans. The quality and detail is second to none. They have put years of research and design into their vans. Both of our vans have performed beyond expectations. Chris and Tash as well as their highly trained team are exceptional. If, rarley, there is a problem it is investigated and fixed pronto
Christine E
"This is my second caravan, and the quality and service at Torus RV have made it extremely pleasurable! Compared to my 1st van, the interior fit out is perfect, no rattles, watertight, and the layout is exactly what we were after. Torus' warranty outlasts any others on the market! So far, only 1 item needed fixing- the shower door needed re aligning- if that's all I've found I'm pretty happy!"
