    Front Lounge with Drop-Down Bed Motorhomes

    Last updated: 14 August 2026Reviewed by RoamWorthy Editorial Team

    Is the Ace 1200 Rl a practical choice for touring?

    The Ace 1200 Rl is a compact 2 to 4 berth motorhome measuring 5.92m in length, built on the Fiat Ducato chassis. It is defined by its U-shaped rear lounge which provides a spacious social area and excellent natural light. With a 3400kg MTPLM and a 535kg payload, it offers a balance of manageable driving dimensions and sufficient storage for extended trips.

    • Rear Lounge (RL) layout with wrap-around windows for panoramic views.
    • Compact exterior length of 5.92m for easier navigation and parking.
    • Substantial 535kg payload capacity for personal belongings.
    • Full kitchen facilities including a 4-burner hob, grill, and oven.
    • Integrated washroom with shower, toilet, and vanity unit.

    Worth knowing: The rear lounge requires manual assembly to convert into a bed each night. Kitchen workspace is restricted when the sink and hob covers are open. Exterior styling reflects its era and may appear dated to some buyers.

    Buying an Ace 1200 Rl

    Who it suits

    • • Couples who prioritising a large lounge area for socialising.
    • • Drivers transitioning from caravans who want a vehicle under 6 metres.
    • • Tourers requiring a high payload of 535kg for heavy equipment.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • The 5.92m length makes it more manoeuvrable than many modern coachbuilts.
    • • The 3400kg MTPLM allows it to be driven on a standard UK car licence.
    • • Proven build quality from the Swift Group family of brands.

    What to check

    • • Inspect the operation of the overcab bed mechanism if present.
    • • Test all kitchen appliances including the 4-burner hob and full oven.
    • • Check the integrity of the double-glazed windows and integrated flyscreens.
    • • Confirm the service history of the Fiat Ducato 2.3 JTD engine.

    Worth knowing: Check the specific berth configuration as this model can be found in 2 or 4 berth versions. Verify the condition of the Truma heating and water systems during inspection.

    Compare the Ace 1200 Rl with similar models

    Ace 1200 Rl43400 kg5.92 m£16,500 to £24,000
    Compass Drifter 41043400 kg5.95 m£12,500 to £22,000
    Elddis Autoquest 15043500 kg5.99 m£25,000 to £50,000

    The Ace 1200 Rl sits in a competitive bracket alongside models like the Compass Drifter 410 and Elddis Autoquest 150. While the Ace is noted for its 5.92m length and 535kg payload, the Elddis Autoquest 150 offers a higher 3500kg MTPLM and a longer 5.99m body. The Ace provides a more compact footprint than the 6.35m Autocruise Starmist, making it a choice between interior floor space and exterior manoeuvrability.

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

    Ace 1200 Rl Ownership Insights

    • Utilise the 535kg payload by distributing heavy items in the lower storage lockers.
    • Make use of the wrap-around rear windows for ventilation in warmer climates.
    • Check the 2.22m width when navigating narrow country lanes or parking bays.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Overlooking the need to assemble the rear bed nightly if not using the overcab.
    • • Assuming all models have identical berth counts without checking the specific unit.

    Worth knowing: Always confirm the exact MTPLM before loading to ensure legal compliance. Be aware that kitchen counter space is limited during meal preparation.
