CONSTRUCTION
The Nova Metrolink rides on a 6in SupaGal chassis . The body is built from Nova ’ s composite aluminium Pro-Al walls . The roof , meanwhile , is a one-piece fibreglass that runs from the very front to the very rear . The roof and wall panels come neatly together with a subtle J mould .
Every Nova caravan leaves the factory fitted with Al-Ko Electronic Stability Control , and the Metrolink is no different . Not that I ’ ve ever had any dramas towing a Nova caravan before , mind you , but the ESC is certainly appreciated .
In terms of weights , our Metrolink 166-1R tipped the scales at a respectable 1967kg Tare . Taking into account its ATM of 2389k , it offers a payload capacity of 422kg .
The standard items can be found on the nearside , such as a roll-out awning , an awning light , a picnic table , a very low skirt of black checkerplate , a speaker , and a 240V and 12V powerpoint .
