Ok.....whats the difference? (1 Viewer)

[Dawnbreak]

Hubby and I doing lots of research prior to purchase...won't be for another year but want to get the feel of things. Anyway we have narrowed it down to a Swift Sundance or Bessacarr 400....so having studied the brochures there seems to be a few differences...i.e. the ash wood in the Bessacarr and the lighter material but is there anything significantly different between the two, or should we save a few hundred £ and go for the Swift Sundance....any advice please:thumb:

swift and bessacar are pretty much two of the same thing,bessacar is the upmarket interior, I owned a swift 590rs sundance and it was a great van(on a fiat as well) but the answer to your question is,the only difference is the interior in the bessacar is made to a higher spec.whatever you choose enjoy :thumb:

Sundancers are very popular vans and have a good following, we have used them on our hire fleet for a number of years and they have stood up very well.

Just qurious, what is wrong with Fiat? It appears to me that a lot of vans have a Fiat base

Loved our Bessie 425 (or was it a 435? - L shaped rear lounge.) I have to say, I still miss the feel of it and the seats themselves and the upholstery were 100% better than the Pilote. to me. Plus although the bed is now exactly where I want it, I don't sleep half as well in it as I did in the Bessie luton, it was just that DAMNED ladder.

When we were tuggers (my wife thinks I still am, by the way), we had a Bessacarr and it was fabulous. The quality of workmanship and the upholstery were terrific. I would think that the brand must still count for something.
