| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Elddis Whirlwind GTV 560 140BHP Auto | 2 | 3500 kg | 5.41 m | £58,000 to £74,500 |

The Elddis Whirlwind GTV 560 occupies a specific niche for buyers who want the 140BHP automatic Peugeot powertrain in the shortest 5.41m chassis. While alternatives like the Elddis Evolution CV60 or Swift Carrera 122 offer more interior room via their 5.99m or 6m lengths, the Whirlwind prioritises ease of parking and urban agility. It maintains the same 3500kg MTPLM as its larger rivals, resulting in a competitive payload of 635kg. The choice between these models typically rests on whether the buyer values the compact footprint of the Whirlwind over the additional floor space found in longer 6m conversions.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and maintenance tips
- Utilise the 635kg payload carefully to maintain stable handling on the 5.41m chassis.
- Regularly inspect the seals around the sky-view panoramic rooflight.
- Test the Dometic 2-burner hob and Whale water system before winter trips to ensure year-round readiness.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Overlooking the height of 2.62m when navigating car parks with height barriers.
- Assuming all models have the pop-top roof, which is an optional feature.
Worth knowing: Always verify the exact MTPLM on the vehicle plate before loading to maximum capacity.
