SOLD Swift Challenger 480 Alde (2016)
Sold
The 2016 New Swift Caravans have arrived! The Swift Challenger 480 has a spacious end washroom and has Alde central heating.
With a stunning new profile and the latest stylish interiors the Challenger range offers outstanding value at weights towable by most family cars. Whether you are an active adventurer or relaxed rambler, with eight models to choose from including a twin axle variant, you are sure to find a Challenger that’s right for you.
Bathed in natural light, courtesy of a panoramic sunroof, the stylish theme continues throughout the professionally designed and carefully coordinated interior. 'Aralie Sen' woodgrain with an ashen brown hue adorns the furniture and upper locker doors, which sport a new gloss finish and a chrome inlay.
'Zimba' soft furnishings are light and bright. A tasteful fusion of a cream base fabric with a dark brown thread and stylised floral curtains in earthy brown and duck egg blue accents. Chrome sockets, switches and push button locker catches finish the contemporary feel.
Flexible seating and sleeping arrangements feature new Swift AirWave seating with a unique construction that expertly blends comfort and support. Fixed beds are topped with the ultra comfortable Duvalay Duvalite mattress, exclusive as standard equipment to the Swift Group. Well equipped kitchens feature the Dometic fridge with removable freezer compartment and washrooms have a transit friendly bi-fold shower door.
'Truma' Combi heating comes as standard and is easy to use via a digital panel to control the heating and hot water. Your new Challenger can now be refined further with an optional 'Alde' wet central heating system.
