If anyone wants to see a decent website in English of the current Niewiadow trailers that were sold under the Cadet and Captain names, it's here: Mini-Caravan

The web site belongs to someone in Hamburg and what it has to do with the Polish manufacturer, I don't know. However it has much better pictures than the manufacturer's own site.

Someone was asking about adding a bunk to the Cadet and pictures of that option can be seen on the N-126 N model.

I like this sentence:

Possible Ineressenten can visit the different models after date arrangement gladly.

Good looking trailers!

What people should especially notice is the "add-a-room" photo. I really love the tent-rooms that the European trailers have. Puts our North American "glorified tarp wrapped around the side" version to shame.

Mike i totally agree with you on the tent rooms.The North American Trailer industry should have a hard look at their products and look abroad for their future.Those overseas tents are fantastic and very functional,not to mention sharpe looking.

I want one - well, actually, I want one of each!!!

Someone will have to do the math for me - what is the weight???

And, when do we get them in the US?

It is a lot of work to put it up.
It is heavy, at least 30 kg.
It is mainly used by people who stay for a week or more on the same pitch.
People who move frequently, use a canopy.
European caravans are equiped with an awning rail.

I never use an awning.

The Niewiadows come in two categories: the smaller E, ET and D models with the lifting roof like an Eriba and the larger fixed roof N, NT and NTL models - confusingly, they're all called N-126!

Smaller models (E, ET, D):
Overall 153" (12.75') long x 76" wide x 86" high
1170lb unladen, 1430lb GVWR equivalent
Prices are about $(US) 6300-7000

Larger models (N, NT, NTL):
Overall 177" (14.75') long x 81" wide x 100" high
1340-1370lb unladen, 1650lb GVWR equivalent
Prices are about $(US) 7700-10400

The prices are as quoted on Niewiadow's website (much improved lately), converted at today's Polish Zloty/$ exchange rate. So you can make you own assessment about how much more they would be if offered for sale in the US or Canada. And in case anyone is getting over-excited, there is no suggestion that this is likely to happen! Makes you wonder if there isn't a business opportunity here though.......

Considering the number of people that have 4 cylinder cars, a small trailer of this type could have a big potential here.

Nice little trailer. BTW - Kelty actually makes a tent room for the T@B - very nice.

These are great trailers and if you look closly you'll see that
they are still using the same body that my 1987 Captain has,
they simply turned it around. You can compare them by looking at the Captain
that is contained in the Album section of this website.
If someone would import them into Canada or the US, I sure would get
another.
