Thanks for the informative, entertaining and always anticipated videos. Regarding the cab blinds in the Swift motorhomes, I have these in my Warwick XL. Due to the way the folded blind lies in a case at the bottom of the window frame the lower nearside mirror is obscured, meaning I had to got a small stick on overtaking mirror to upper one to give better view of traffic undertaking at motorway slip roads etc. You commented on front blind and reversing camera screen. If you look at A pillar the track for the blind has a curve in it allowing blind to come past screen if latter is angled correctly. My hack is to lower the sun visors when parked up and bring the blind to just below the mirror, saves readjusting everything in the morning.
Good video & very informative. As someone said on here, its all about personal choice. The one thing about any layout, it is personal to you. We bought a Swift Escape 664 from new in 2018, as it suited us more than other models/makes. I have looked at the current Swift line up's for a few weeks now. I will say though, it's a poor show of Swift (IMO) not participating at the NEC show. They will have their reasons of course - however, I for one would not decide to buy a Motorhome, on the basis of going on their on-line 'Swift Live' events, to purchase one. I want to see, touch &, compare. Can't help they're missing a trick - big time.
They are not at the NEC because they cant fill the backlog of orders. now looking at almost 2 years ive been told if you order now. European companies like Possl etc saying 9 months but they have reduced models and basic models, plus no Bespoke orders for the forseable future. I wanted to change my 3year old Globecar R Evolution for a new one, they not even making it at the moment and cant give me a date for if and when they will resume production of the same model. because its not a best seller in the range because of its height and length. 😪
Great vlog Bob. Very informative review of a variety of MHs. I agree with your comment about electronic handbrakes, my Defender has one as well as auto hold. So basically I just forget about it.
We’ve got a 2018 684. Prefer the seating in ours. Personally, I think those extra seats that go under the other seating take up valuable locker space and add to the weight. The newer bathroom is nice though.
Great video again Bob.Looks like a nice Motorhome. It seems expensive compared to the adamo. Considering the the adamo has an auto box as standard. If you added that to the price would take the price over £70k. Do you think its better than the adamo Bob? I know you were impressed by the Ford cab and auto box. But not the reverse camera screen location.
Lovely motorhomes Bob, a few parts appear to be missing but understandable Bob in the current climate. Be interesting to see how the NEC show plans out
I get the impression 2022 Fiat vans are only being shipped for motorhome/campervans manufactured on the continent - no ‘just vans’ for UK conversions….?

Oh right, thanks for that. Still a bit of a pain then the blinds.

Yes, totally agree with you. I also think it's disrespectful to their customers and shows a lack of support to their dealers not to attend the show.

@@charliej690 they still expect dealers to be there though...

Great video total enjoyed watching, keep up the good work! Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the look around the motor homes. The swift compact looks a good starter one . X
Yes, fairly well equipped
Thanks for the video. How much was the Malibu?
Sorry I don't know because it has been sold.
Another great video bob everythink to detail perfect
Thank you

Thanks, that's interesting. I wonder if the occasional benefit of extra seats really does outweigh the loss of storage.

Yes, the Swift Escape 640 manual seems expensive against the Adamo 69-4's auto. I think I'd prefer the Adamo - with the issues fixed.
Another good video Bob. if there's any Bailey Autographs or Swift's could you show us
At the show, will do.
Thank you a really good informative video 👏😀
So nice of you
😊👍

Yes, it's going to interesting to see what will be there.

I don't know, there are plenty of Swift Selects around, but if you mean for self conversions?
@@BobEarnshawMoHo I’m waiting for “IH” on the new Fiat platform - thus far they’ve seen none🙄
Some good upgraded MH Bob , 👍
uncanny how close a match the 640 escape is to the adamo
Yes, same layout.
Swift motorhome alot more money for alot less motorhome more for cheapness.
Thanks for sharing your opinions. A lot is not one word by the way.
All motorhomes are fantastic, why all the negativity? Personal preference 👍
@@davecripps1618 Exactly, at least people have a choice.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo
Just enjoy the whole travel experience in whatever motorhome or caravan suits 👍
