Swift kon tiki sport 596

[Aido10]

Hi everyone,

Is there anyone here that has thoughts on the swift Kontiki sport 596 in terms of the build quality/issues. I'm fairly new to all of this and still looking at the right purchase for our first motorhome but my wife is looking to have an end lounge type setup. I was inside a ton tiki yesterday and I was really impressed and it definitely felt premium to me. I've seen some popular you tubers in similar Kontiki vans and they all look great and they seem to be spoken highly of but I wanted to reach out to see if there's any members with thoughts/experience with this model? I've seen some posts referencing swift build quality but not sure if a lot of this is tongue in cheek.

I would be mainly using from April to September but would like the option of a van that would be usable in winter conditions as well

Thanks

We looked around one at a show a couple of years ago and the doors weren’t even fitted properly and there was loose screws and sawdust in various locations where they had dropped out.

Hi Aido,
I bought a 2018 Swift Bessacarr 596 late last year, maybe email me and I can explain the issues I've had.
Regards, Rob
