2016 Sprite Freedom FB review

[LizziePope]

Part of the new-for-2016 entry-level range from the Swift Group, you get a lot for your money with the Sprite Freedom FB. To find out more, read our review. What do you think?

It looks good for a starter van and I guess costs have been kept to a minimum. Is this why there is no external hatch to enable easier removal of the spare wheel from under the fixed double bed? To get to it one would have to lift up the bed, reach the spare and then carry it through the van to the main door. :evil:

Same layout as we have. Works well with 3 growing teens and 3 dogs. Also worked the once we used it as a luxury 2 berth. The Sprite is far too sparse for us but a good layout for families at a reasonable price and weight for a layout which is much more family friendly, in our opinion, than fixed bunks. We don't miss our fixed bunk end washroom at all, in fact the smaller washroom makes it more user friendly as one can be showering and another doing teeth. We don't use sites with full washroom facilities and don't feel the need to. The same layout further up the Swift range didn't hit the mark for us when we went to the Lawns. No bolsters by the entrance door for example makes the lounge less user friendly.

"with a spec (and price) aimed at first-time buyers.""

Pitty they didn't spend the money on a stabiliser hitch instead of on the rear bicycle rack fifttings.!!
Even more reason to fit a stabilser with that weight swinging around on the back panel!!
