Are new Lunar caravans still made?

No. Lunar Caravans Ltd entered administration in March 2019 and no new Lunar caravans have been built since. Any Lunar caravan on the market today is a used example.

Is Swift or Lunar better for first-time caravan buyers?

Swift is generally the lower-risk first-time buy because there is a current range, the largest dealer network and warranty options. Lunar can suit first-time buyers on a tight budget who accept they are buying a used-only caravan with no manufacturer backing.

Which has more used Swift and Lunar caravans to compare on RoamWorthy?

Swift dominates the used market because it is still in production with very large volumes. Lunar used stock is still available but is gradually reducing as older caravans leave the market.

Should I compare MTPLM when choosing between Swift and Lunar?

Yes. Both brands span a wide range of weights depending on year and layout, and tow-car matching to within the 85% guideline matters more than the brand badge. Use the towing calculator to verify before committing.

What should I check on a used Lunar caravan?

Review the documented habitation history, check the damp record and inspect the bodyshell carefully. With no current manufacturer warranty, an independent habitation check is particularly worthwhile.

Swift vs Lunar Caravans: Which Brand Should You Compare?

Swift is the largest UK caravan manufacturer with the broadest current range and the largest dealer network. Lunar Caravans Ltd entered administration in March 2019, so Lunar is now a used-only buy. The decision is mostly between a current brand with new and used options, dealer support and warranty (Swift), or a used-only caravan typically priced lower but with no manufacturer backing (Lunar).

Verdict

Swift may suit buyers comparing current range choice and dealer support; Lunar may suit buyers comparing the lowest used prices and accepting no manufacturer support.

Swift covers nearly every layout and price point in the current UK caravan market and has the largest dealer network for warranty, parts and habitation service. Lunar is a different decision. New caravans stopped in 2019, recent models are out of factory warranty, and aftercare relies on independent specialists. Used Lunar caravans are still widely available and often at lower prices than equivalent Swift models, which is the main reason buyers still consider them. Check habitation history and damp record on any specific Lunar listing, and verify MTPLM against your tow car for either brand.
