Unit Type:
The Gazelle had one of the shortest lifespans of any of the Conway models. It was, also, their only foray into the world of the foldover 'Combi-Camp style' trailer tent. These two facts appear to be related, as Combi-Camp are reported to have commenced legal action against Conway, due to the Gazelle's uncanny resemblence to the Combi-Camp models of the time. As a result, the Gazelle was quickly removed from the range, and, consequently, is a rare and much sought after model.
 
The Gazelle was only produced in 1985, in the distinctive russet and beige colour scheme (which, unfortunately, was also similar to the Combi-Camps of the time). Due to it's closeness in design to the Combi's, it could be set up in under a minute, plus awning. It came with the options of a sun canopy or full awning.
 
One of the great things about the Gazelle was its flexibility of accomodation. It could be set up with two settees with double bed behind, a single settee, with storage behind, and double bed to the side, or two double beds side by side (with a roll down divider between them). The various layout options are shown below.
 
Also, below, are a couple of walk around videos of one of our own recent Gazelle projects, one with awning set up, and one without.
 
Included in the paperwork section above is the only brochure the Conway ever produced for the Gazelle, as well as the setup instructions for the model. Full details of the model can be seen in the former. As with all of the Conway models these are included with the kind permission of the Conway Owners Club.
