    Compare the Swift Eccles eccles 480 with similar models

    ModelBerthsMTPLMLengthTypical price
    Swift Eccles eccles 48021415 kg6.59 m£14,500 to £28,500
    Swift Conquerer 48021477 kg6.59 m£14,500 to £32,000
    Bailey Unicorn Seville21414 kg6.47 m£14,500 to £32,995

    The Swift Eccles 480 sits at a premium price point compared to entry-level models like the Sprite. While it shares its 6.59m length with the Swift Conquerer 480, it offers a different balance of weight and specification. Compared to the Bailey Unicorn Seville, the Eccles 480 is slightly longer and features the Swift Command system, whereas the Bailey alternatives often provide a lower MTPLM. The choice between these models typically rests on the preference for Swift's SMART construction versus competitor chassis and heating configurations.

    Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

    Ownership and Towing Tips

    • Use the Swift Command app to monitor battery levels and heating remotely.
    • Utilise the 6.59m length to ensure adequate spacing in storage facilities.
    • Check the 146kg payload against heavy accessories like motor movers.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Exceeding the 1415kg MTPLM by over-loading the 146kg payload.
    • • Assuming all models in this price range include the same Alde heating specification.

    Worth knowing: Payload is 146kg; careful management of equipment is required. The 2.23m width should be considered when planning storage or narrow routes.
