Good review but why do I get the impression that this particular van was cobbled together in a hurry?
Had ours for over 3 years now, done loads of travelling in it, absolutely love it and it was 20 grand cheaper, just shows how much the price has increased 👍🏻
Hired a 122 for a week's holiday recently. Loved the rear double bed, very comfy. I wouldn't buy one though, the pinch point between the kitchen and washroom is annoying, other rear-lounge offerings don't have this issue.
Nice van, we have just bought a new V-Line 610 Sport which I obviously prefer
V lines are defo better
Connector next to water is a 12v power source to pump water in. Downside the cover flap on these break off very easily and are not replaceable- 35 quid for a replacement fitting although an orangina cap fits which you see on lots of vans.
Saw one on the road like this and thought it’s the best looking thing Swift have ever made. But then they’ve made so little effort inside. This kind of layout done better by companies like Vantage.
My old Hobby had the fridge behind the driver. If you forgot to lock the door it would swing open when you drove off and whack you in the back. At least I never went far with the fridge unlocked!
I agree, I have a consort on order and like the Vantage more storage and seemingly more thought to the internal arrangement while still having the end lounge..
The rear lounge will suit many, but I’d like to see Swift and other manufacturers look towards having a proper garage with twin or double bed above. It makes longer trips possible with the extra storage. I do have concerns with Swift build quality and thought I noticed a gap between the toilet and wall in the shower?
Yeah, i had one of these on hire and felt the washroom could’ve been done better. Bench toilet would’ve better suited I think. The rear lounge was amazing!
Yes, and the cutout for the tv aerial looked rough and the “leather” front seats look like covers?
I like the rear lounge with the two jack-knife sofas. I do not like having my Stromer and Bulls bikes on an external carrier, especially if over night in a dark place, or in a parking lot while doing a lot of shopping.
Thank for showing! I must admit I'm not a big fan of the setup:
1) you have to totally remove your beddings to be able to have a table
2) you don't have much "cargo" space to store some leisure stuff(inflatable kayak, bikes, ... )
3) In such small van, it's a pity to not be able to use the front seats with a table, seems like a loss of space.
4) I hate those vans where you have to put a shower curtain, always stuck to you, especially in such close space.
Beautiful van, love the 122, prefer the 184 though, now thats a van :-)
You either love campervan or you dont, we moved from a motorhome to camper van similar to the Swift and love it. Compromise is space obviously . Don't know why the two waste taps are on different sides ,makes it awkward to dispose of waste at same time .Otherwise good layout and features but at 63 thousand ,ouch ,it also needs an underslung gas tank
Yes, we hired a 122 and thought the grey/fresh taps on opposite sides was odd. No real biggie but a strange config.
“small screen ,helping to keep the cost down” 63k ! obviously not working then 😄
@ 3:00...could that be a pressure relief port to be opened when you are filling the water?
Smart exterior, could be more modern in colouration inside than the wood effect laminate, ideal van for two people, seems very expensive though, but more space than a vee dub .
I like that Swift Select.
Six tonne limit on a car licence in NZ. Its about time the UK adopted that weight limit as well!
In the UK if you've passed your test before 1st January 1997 you can drive upto 7.5 tonnes on a car licence, otherwise its 3.5 tonnes.
Loved the outside, but yet again dated colours on the inside!
What's with the brown upholstery and the fake brown woodgrain.
Would love to see brighter white washed grain cabinetry and grey more modern upholstery.
Adria now make more modern interiors.
Love my VW but when/if I go bigger I want it to be modern, not dated from day one.
[Can you tell I've had a bad day at work today 🤭]
Still loving the vids
Hope your day improves!!
Too much shiny also for me
Brown woodgrain? Seriously?The outside of the truck looks smart and contemporary indeed but the inside like it just beamed from the '70's or something.
I really hope they will offer some decent options for the inside colors or else I suspect they won't be selling a great many of them.
Yeah I thought that. Very dated
how do you make the bed in this layout? maybe sleeping bags? seems like a hassle making the bed every night and packing it up every morning?
Hi, nice video and tour thank you. Would you know, is this on an L3 H3? Many thanks.
Think it's likely to be a 12v dc socket?
It's a really nice looking campervan bot indide and outside!
A manual is also more fuel efficient which most people don't realise. By the way it is a canopy, not an awning.
the plug on outside is for an external pump to use an aqua roll ect
Thank you. I figured it had to be for a pump.
A very nice camper van! Great video!!!
Lovely BUT, I love sitting adjacent to a big sliding door to have a cuppa and look at the view, like the California Ocean.
Shocking interior
Is there somewhere in scotland i could buy this Ducato fixate swift select 122 camper van? Grampian region to Dundee.?
Looks great, shame it’s not got a roof bed like the Adventure 65. Thank you for the review tho. 👍
To make one or two single beds, with this layout, you just dump the back cushions onto the floor.
Thanks for the review, do you know what colour that Ducato was? I've ordered a Autotrail Adventure 65 in Artense Grey, but not seen it yet 🤣
Why don't they put the bathrooms in the rear? They are beautiful but very cramped.
They do that with rear bathroom conversions which this one is not .
Does look a nice van, like that oven 👍
I think it’s a shame they no longer have curtains. They make a van feel more homely. This one looks a bit clinical.
totally love it
Nice but literally no wheeer to put stuff ass there is no storage at the back.
Nice to see the access door on the “right” (n/s) side for a change but these vans that are based on the Fiat/Ducato base are truly horrendous, very agricultural. My mom has a 21reg Catargo Malibu auto and we hired a new Swift motorhome this year and was amazed how awful they drive and feel.
I would agree on the earlier ducatos but I have the new series 8 with a 160 auto and it drives very well compared to my old series 7, although I dont know what they drive like on a coachbuild , I have only had conversions
I would say overall the manuals are much more common in motorbikes and campervans so I would disagree with that. We’ve been told it weighs 3.5 tons , but that’s laden weight not empty. So how much is the payload? Better vans on the market
You get around 540kg payload @ 3.5T You can upgrade to 4T if you have the correct licence.. There's always a better van somewhere, all vans are compromises, you just have to accept what is best for you within you're budget.
Could the sleeping area
accommodate 2 Single sleepers please?
We have an Elddis CV20 and use the rear as two single beds
Nothing like keeping chocolate in the ftidge 😉
YES!!! 🙌
@@ABusAndBeyond even better with a cup of tea 👍
@@ABusAndBeyond My much taller husband places all the chocolate in our home fridge on the highest shelf, way out of my reach. Send help;). Lovely van, thanks for the detailed tour!
Drivers seat doesnt recline enough unless your short. 0nly two travel seats. Fridge door wouldnt open the other way no space for the door to rotate. No garage space and no fixed bed. These vans are cheaper than the continental layout for a reason. Best bit is the lounging ability but thats about it.
This van would suit a mature couple who don’t have toys to fit in a garage and who want to just lounge about when parked up, market is big for this van.
It’s a campervan not a motorhome
Not a great deal of food prep area. A little table at the side near the sink. They could've put another on the other side near the cooker. There's others similar that has lots of prep area.
I don't like the trivalent refrigerator. They should all be compressors
As cool as they are even the VW campers for there price I could by a 6 Berth BAILEY 81/6
Amazing!!! Backward driving cars 😂
Possibly find out about the van a bit more before doing a review . The little thingy on the outside for example.
I understand what they are trying to do but it just doesnt work for me , just doesnt flow
We have the Autotrail 610 Sport, these have an underslung gas, water and waste tanks. The Sport option gives you a boot which is a rectangular box shape, so very useful. I like the Swift's over cab window, neater than Autotrails version. The Sport option also gives you a wrap around lounge, but no barn doors. Both brands suffer from the near side lounge window potentially being damaged by the sliding door, why they don't fit sliding there windows is beyond me. Why arn't there rails or lips fitted to the Swift's bathroom shelves? For two people both this Swift model and the Aurotrail equivalent are comfortable, nimble and economical vans.
swift do a two way opening fridge
Defo need to put one in this van then!
What a strange van. Literally no storage 63k is insane for that the fittings looked pretty cheap tbh. At 43 maybe for a bit of fun for few years but way over priced
Have you checked out the price of a Ducato Professional van? Even allowing for bulk discounts £63k inc vat is cheap.
😍❤️💕Beautifull ❤️💕👌🏼🌹
So many haters in the van community. Is this the norm? All glass half empty types? Ooh, you shouldn’t do it like that.
Certainly seems awfully critical in the comments doesn’t it! 😂🤷♀️
No, automatic is rare compared to the manual gearbox.
Nice van not sure about the layout 🤔
If you want to know what something is on the van why not just go in to showroom and ask
Think once you've seen one there all the same
It’s lazy and cheap not to put a folding tap in the sink to give a clear work space .
Sorry but my Weinsberg conversion is a far nicer layout and sleeps 5.
Adria twin is much better
Too expensive. In Brasil we do it better with half of the cost.
Nope..looks narrow and dull!
outside looks good crap interior totaly boring and definatly not cozy for 53 grand you could buy much nicer
Not at all impressed with this motorhome to be honest. I also do wish Swift would stop smacking the national flag all over the side of their motorhomes and caravans.
It is embarrassing especially when on the Continent .
Wouldn't touch a fiat
TBH that's what i thought , then 4 years ago my work got 4 ducato's .. each one does about 50k miles a year & other than servicing every 20k miles ( roughly ) none of them have needed attention .. they're quieter & more comfortable than our previous Sprinters & Transits .. and are going to be replaces shortly with 4 more Ducato's
Nice tattoos.....WHY
Nothing new nothing Innovative, and a fix it again tony van
Could you pls learn how to video and do this…. Also pls learn editing as well..
Maybe one day we will be as good as your channel
lots of cup holders everywhere NOPE
Nice van not sure about the layout 🤔
