Each wheel has independent suspension, being mounted on a swing arm that allows it to move. The Delta axle tube is cranked, rather than straight, which changes the angle at which the tyres touch the road. The Isonzo rides on Al-Ko’s Delta axle, specifically designed for extra stability on long caravans. We towed these caravans over many hundreds of miles from our base in south Lincolnshire in the course of work and pleasure and proved, if proof were needed, that this monster of a caravan, on a mere single axle, was a stable companion and a pleasure to tow. And, when the heating system changed to Alde, Adria sent us another for evaluation. Shortly after the first models were unveiled, one arrived with Caravan magazine as a long-term-test caravan. The Isonzo earned a special place in our hearts early in its career. Then Alde heating was introduced for the second generation of Isonzos – and the model became a hit among year-round caravanners. The Adora Isonzo is not only among the widest caravans on the market, it’s one of the longest, too, at 8.24m from hitch-head to tail lights. In its eight years, this model has received changes in style and equipment as it has evolved and matured, but the layout has remained largely the same – because it’s stunningly practical, and super-spacious. The Isonzo was a trendsetter spectacular, like its river namesake. It’s a river of waterfalls and cascades – and is famous for its turquoise colour.Īdria unveiled the Adora Isonzo in 2014, before the eight-foot revolution gathered pace among the British manufacturers. The Isonzo flows a spectacular course through both Slovenia and Italy, to reach the Adriatic Sea.
