Is the Swift Suntour 150 a practical choice for couples?
The Swift Suntour 150 is a 6.35m coachbuilt motorhome that balances a compact footprint with a spacious rear lounge layout. With a 3500kg MTPLM and berths for 2 to 4 people, it is well-suited to couples who value a traditional British social space and the ability to drive on a standard licence. Prices typically range between 22000 and 38000 on the pre-owned market.
- U-shaped rear lounge layout designed for social use and panoramic views.
- Compact 6.35m length built on a Fiat Ducato chassis.
- Flexible sleeping arrangements for 2 to 4 people.
- 3500kg MTPLM allows for driving on a standard UK car licence.
- Mid-positioned kitchen featuring a 3-burner hob, oven, and grill.
Worth knowing: The 450kg payload may require careful management when touring with four occupants. The corner washroom is a compact design which may feel restricted for some users. External storage is limited to lockers rather than a full garage space.
Buying a Swift Suntour 150
Who it suits
- Couples seeking a manageable 6.35m vehicle with a large social lounge.
- Small families requiring up to 4 berths within a 3500kg weight limit.
- Tourers who prefer a traditional British end-lounge layout over fixed-bed configurations.
Reasons to consider it
- The 2.24m width and 6.35m length make it easier to park than larger coachbuilt models.
- High standard kitchen equipment including a grill and oven for off-grid cooking.
- Four-season capability provided by Truma blow-air heating and double glazing.
What to check
- Confirm the specific engine variant as some listings mention Peugeot Boxer while others reference Fiat Ducato.
- Verify the operation of the electric entry step and the Truma heating system.
- Inspect the condition of the U-shaped lounge upholstery and bed conversion mechanisms.
- Check the service history of the Fiat Ducato or Peugeot chassis.
Worth knowing: Payload is 450kg, which must cover all passengers, water, and personal belongings. The vehicle height is 2.95m, which requires attention to low bridges and height barriers.

It provides a more compact alternative to the Swift Escape 640, which measures 6.41m.

Swift Suntour 150 Ownership Tips
- Utilise the overhead lockers for lighter items to maintain a stable centre of gravity.

Worth knowing: Always verify the exact MTPLM on the vehicle plate before loading to the 450kg limit.
