Just to clarify the earlier position, and modify slightly part of my posting, which on second reading does not entirely make sense.
The original posting was a Thank You to Swift for arranging and carrying out a very enjoyable days insight into the production methods of todays caravans, and I hasten to add I did not attend, but those who did, and have in the past open days all give excellent reports of the value they got from the day.
The post which was removed was an outright attack on Swift, which was totally out of order, completely unsubstantiated and bore more of a childish reply to being informed that Swift Group sell and make more caravans than Bailey.
Th epart which need clarification is "Users of the forum were advised right at the start of manufacturers postings that personal likes and dislikes will NOT be aired on the forum,"
This is, or was an ill thought out statement, and should have read that whilst in general terms it is good to know of possible faults with vans, specific complaints should be taken up with the dealer first and then the manufacturer, it is not acceptable to make broad unstubstantiated complaints about a whole build group of vans, based on purely personal perspective, such as was voiced.
Swift Group have resolved several problems owners have had, which they have had no joy directly with the dealer and as such deserve to be treated with a bit of respect for taking the initiative in forum participation.
