ROADSTAR boss Ken Nizam has resurrected the old Compass brand name to launch two new entry-level caravans into the market.

The cheaper Compact and Navigator ranges complement Mr Nizan's current range of luxury Roadstar caravans built at his factory in Victoria.

"Both models are contemporary modern designs that are in no comparison to the Roadstar brand," Mr Nizan told Caravanning News.

He claimed they were "much superior" than any other caravans in their price bracket.

The introductory price for the single-axle Compact range starts at $54,900, while the twin-axle Navigator has a price tag in the low $60,000s.

Interior layouts are similar in both ranges, including a north-south queen bed at the front, kitchen and lounge/dinette in the centre and ensuite at the rear.

The Compact has CRS twin coil suspension, full width tunnel boot, double-glazing and modern CNC finish cabinetry, including Roastar's exclusive Novatio sealant and other features.

Appliances in both ranges include a stainless steel range hood, two-door 3-way fridge, air conditioner, sound system and 22in LED TV with DVD player

The Navigator is also fitted with CRS coil twin shock suspension and same build as the compact.

There is the option of beam and rocker roller suspension to reduce the price if requested.

The Navigator's interior offers brushed stainless steel power points and switch covers, a 6ft 4in mattress with a posture adjustable slatted bedframe on gas struts, Flicker mixer taps and water tank level indicator.

* Mr Nizam bought the original Roadstar Industries' plant and equipment when the 21-year-old company closed in 2009. The Australian Hitec Engineering director also won the right to use the iconic Roadstar and Compass trademarks, which now appear on his range of quality caravans.
