Swift vs Bailey

4-months into owning a new Bailey Unicorn - few niggles quickly sorted but otherwise very pleased with it. No better, or worse, built in my opinion that the Elddis we had before or our friends Lunar and Swift. 

Find a van you like and go with it.

FWIW I'm not 90 and given I never need to access the battery I'm more than happy with it being under floor out the way

Bailey owners all tend to be 90 years of age. They're chintzy, have an old persons grab handle inside the door, have the battery in a stupid place under the floor, can't be bothered to make the bathroom window opaque and look odd. Need I say more. 

Swift every time

...Even more reason then to buy a Bailey "SAGA" van or pitch near one as there is less chance of having "problems" with the neigbours

Nope - I'm in my 40s and have three teenagers with me 

thinking of buying new caravan, which is the better company, e.g less leaks, good customer service etc

...Another myth was posted then

We did look at a top of the range Swift the inside looked as if was aimed at a "certain"" mobile market

...but surely the 'market' you refer to, only buy vans that will last, like Hobbys and Fendts......for that reason, theyre tough....

..They only buy them because they are "bigger" that is allowed to be towed by anything other than a "transit" and come complete with no on board water and plastic seat covers
