Is the Sprite Compact a practical choice for touring?
The Sprite Compact is a specialised two berth caravan designed for ease of towing and storage. With a width of 2.03m and a length of 5.37m, it is significantly narrower than standard models, making it suitable for narrow driveways and country roads. It features an end kitchen layout and a parallel lounge, balancing a low MTPLM of 1094kg with modern amenities like the Swift Command control system.
- Two berth capacity with a parallel lounge and end kitchen layout.
- Slimline body width of 2.03m for easier navigation of narrow lanes.
- Lightweight MTPLM of 1094kg suitable for a variety of smaller tow cars.
- SMART construction system featuring GRP body panels and wood-free framing.
- Truma Combi dual-fuel heating and Swift Command app integration.
Worth knowing: Floor space is reduced compared to standard-width Sprite models. The compact washroom design may feel restricted for taller users. Payload is limited to 120kg which requires careful equipment management.
Buying a Sprite Compact
Who it suits
- Couples seeking a nimble caravan for weekend getaways.
- Solo travellers who require a manageable home away from home.
- Owners with restricted driveway space or narrow access routes.
Reasons to consider it
- Exceptional manoeuvrability due to the slimline body width.
- Accessible towing weight for drivers with smaller vehicles.
- Modern interior featuring light oak woodgrains and LED lighting.
What to check
- Confirm the specific year of manufacture as specifications vary by model year.
- Verify the operation of the Swift Command app integration.
- Inspect the condition of the GRP body panels and panoramic sunroof seal.
Worth knowing: The 120kg payload must accommodate all personal belongings and optional extras. Storage capacity is naturally lower than larger models in the Sprite range.
Compare the Sprite Compact with similar models
| Model | Berths | MTPLM | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sprite Compact | 2 | 1094 kg | 5.37 m | £16,500 to £22,450 |
| Swift Sprite Compact | 2 | 1094 kg | 5.37 m | £16,500 to £22,495 |

The Sprite Compact occupies a specific niche for those prioritising narrow dimensions and low weight. While it offers the same SMART construction and Truma heating found in larger Sprite models, its 2.03m width results in less floor space than the Sprite Alpine 2. It is heavier than the Bailey Discovery D4 2 but offers a different internal aesthetic with its panoramic sunroof and light oak finishes. The choice between these models typically depends on whether the buyer values the absolute minimum towing weight or the specific slimline footprint of the Compact.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance
- Utilise the Swift Command app to monitor battery levels and heating remotely.
- Make use of the parallel lounge seating which converts into the primary sleeping area.
- Take advantage of the 5.37m length when booking smaller or more remote pitches.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Exceeding the 120kg payload by installing heavy aftermarket accessories.
- Assuming standard-width caravan covers will fit this slimline 2.03m body correctly.
Worth knowing: Always verify the exact MTPLM on the weight plate before calculating towing ratios.
Alternatives to the Sprite Compact
- Swift Sprite Compact - A similarly sized model worth comparing on layout, weight and price.
- Bailey Discovery D4 2 - The Bailey Discovery D4 2 offers a lower MTPLM of 995kg for those prioritising the lightest possible tow.
