During the early 1950s Berkeley Coachwork produced caravans and pioneered new techniques in fibreglass and lightweight sandwich construction.

More power was required and in 1959 the 792cc Royal Enfield was used and in 1960 the Bandit arrived. The company, however, went into receivership in February 1961.
