New van has proper lovelly mattresses ahhhh I love the rear lounge bed in our Kontiki. Always sleep well on it. People slag off Swift but considering its now coming up 26 years old its pretty amazing its still comfy especially when you consider how much use its had. Good luck with the new van. I hope you both have some great times in it.

Rubbish! no rear lounge and you wont be able to fix anything in that with biro tops, rubber tape and bailer twine like you can in a classic Kontiki. Alright then. It looks cracking Ive given up looking again.

Do your realise what you have done cookie, you have to CLIMB 3 steps for the single beds and if you´re in the mood Climb a bloody ladder to get in and out of the double bed. You´re danger to yourself you are.
