Let’s not beat around the bush—trying to reverse a caravan into a tight pitch or squeeze it onto a narrow drive can turn a peaceful getaway into a full-blown argument. Sound familiar? You’re not alone. That’s where the humble motor mover comes in. It's one of those gadgets that doesn’t look all that flashy but can completely change your towing experience. If you’re new to caravanning, or you’ve just bought your first tourer, you might be wondering what exactly a motor mover is, how it works, whether it’s worth the money—and which one’s the right fit.
Let’s unpack it all.
So, you’ve heard the name Coachman floating around in caravan circles—probably with words like “well-built,” “top-end,” or even “posh” attached. But are they actually any good? Worth the price tag? Built to last? Or are you just paying extra for a shiny badge and a soft-close drawer?
Let’s not waffle—here’s what you really need to know.
So, you’re thinking about buying a caravan—and someone’s probably mentioned Swift. Maybe more than once. It’s not surprising; Swift’s one of the biggest names in the game here in the UK. But the question’s still hanging in the air: Are Swift caravans actually any good? Not just shiny on a forecourt, but good for real-life touring, year after year?
Let’s break it down.
