Hi folks

We as a family are looking at the Swift Conqueror 565 caravan 2016 model, to take over to spain and leave there on a season pitch.

We are after some views on this caravan, what do others think of this model. Any owners of this model had problems with it etc. Or where you put off buying this.

many thanks

Chris

If it is staying down in Spain I would suggest you get a German made caravan from a Spanish dealer. It will be cheaper & better & warranty will be good in Spain. You can pay for it by bank transfer.

Thank you, we may be bring it back here at some point. Our thinking about getting it over here, we can have a few dry runs load it up with all the equipment etc then toe it all out there and not have to pay to have thing flown out there other then us.

I suggest you search out websites of Spanish dealers near your location & see what they have. Use search term 'distribuidores de caravanas' You will find you can get same spec caravan for £1000s less. No problem selling German made caravans in UK if you do bring it home.

We have a Swift Conqueror 565 caravan and absolutely love it. We bought ours last year and wouldn't change a thing.
The shower is brilliant and so is the Alde heating.
We had a mover put on it which we think is a must for such a heavy caravan.

Thanks the one we looking at has a mover fitted, its 2016 model guy brought it had some extras put on, then something happened so sold it back to the dealer. So its second hand but never been used.

You won't be disappointed if you go for it. If you get the chassis number and ring up Swift in Cottingham they will tell you if any warranty work has been carried out. You will then have piece of mind knowing it hadn't been returned because it had faults or been in an accident.
Hope you will be getting it at a good price.Ours was a demonstrator at a small dealers. It was immaculate and we got around £4000 off.We managed to negotiate a free mover.
The Duvalay beds are so comfortable, Just make sure the width suits you.We have friends who bought a Coachman, same layout, and the man doesn't like the bed as it's too narrow.
