It is evident that Traveluxe caravans were re-branded Furness caravans. I am guessing that Motors Limited may have been a car dealer in Adelaide. Perhaps one of the South Australian forum members can tell us?

Very similar to Furness

Hi SGTL,

Great advert! I'm sure that the Traveluxe was a Furness. Apart from being a Furness shape, it's got a sliding door and sliding windows, and I don't know of any other manufacturer that incorporated those features. I guess the Traveluxe was another example of badge engineering in South Australia.
