OUR NEW VAN!

[@jamiekinsella3265]

Could you please show us the seatbelt arrangements for the kids travelling & a more in detail of all the outside storage compartments. What extras can you spec with this motorhome and which did you choose extra wise , thank you .

[@RoamingRadfords]

Hey Jamie! There will be a video coming soonish, but I’ll try remember to put a photo on insta today or tomorrow so you can see the travel seats when they are set up!

[@gillianfarley8575]

What an absolute gorgeous van, we have a caravan but dream of owning a lovely motorhome like this. Love your reviews and wish you every happiness with your beautiful new van

[@RoamingRadfords]

Gillian, thank you so so much xx

[@gordonmellor4564]

Great review of such a lovely motorhome. I have been looking at the virtual tour of the 874 but your video is excellent. The 874 has a superb layout and love the large rear lounge but did not want to make up bed each day so drop down is ideal and also will keep our two dogs off it. Obvious compromise is overhead storage lockers where the bed is. With there being 5 of you do you thinks storage will be OK. Again, may thanks for another great video. All the best, Gordy

Looks an amazing ‘van. My only gripe with the kitchen is having to open a cupboard to then open a drawer to get a teaspoon. Could have easily slotted a shallow cutlery draw in to the design - above the slide out cupboard alongside the grill?

[@RoamingRadfords]

My biggest worry was the lack of surface area, but the flip up section is huge. We are used to opening cupboard doors to get in to the cutlery etc, so I think we will cope x

@@RoamingRadfords looks brilliantly flexible with those long parallel front sofas so if one just about fits on the shorter side with feet on the front seat it’ll be a scramble & refusing to share the drop down ;-) love what Swift have done with the single travel seats too, great family design. We seriously considered all sorts of vans/motorhomes but the rear travel seats were just far too narrow and mine squabbled endlessly when they were little so no chance of squeezing them into a double seat together!

[@shooster5884]

One thing I wondered about was why the fall down double bed wasn't placed over the rear lounge instead of at the front which would have left use of the kitchen, drive and living area useable if someone was in bed sick or just wanted to lie in late or go to bed early etc.. The utility area and access to outside can't be used if the double bed is in use, can they?

[@RoamingRadfords]

I think it’s because it’s a “high end” van and the separate bedroom areas are more desirable in that price bracket.
