    Swift Accord 482

    Andy - much appreciated and helpful. Thanks - looking at other responses from yourself and Swift to other questions, I find it very encouraging that a company takes a pro active interest in its customers.

    Swift Accord 482

    (copy of post from caravans as found Swift often look here) I have found a 2007 model hardly used, but not one of Swift official "models" - anyone heard of it; if a dealer model, do you know which "official" swift model it is based upon? Many thanks for info. Peter

    New Bailey Pageants

    Hi - the van sounds to be exactly like the one I saw at the NEC in October 06; that did not have a fan either. Suggest contact Bailey with caravan number - Kelly Watts on their helpline is excellent - to find out when produced and explain what appears to be the case. We too have waited 3 months...

    Witter Quantum Tow Bar

    Hi - have one of these fitted to my present Alhambra, as it was to my previous one. Works very well. The rotating release "knob" was difficult to press and turn when new, but ok now. Peter
