I once tried to get a new gas bottle sticker for the locker on my caravan. Do you think I could get one? Not on your life but there is someone, somewhere producing them. Explorer Group wouldn't send me one, NCC wouldn't and there wasn't a single a caravan retailer that was even prepared to try and help.

i contacted calor customer service and they sent me two FOC by post.like you took ages to find one because no one sells them.


This might be a bit late but, for the future, look here.

Hi Wobblybox

What you say makes sense and it would not surprise me if it's true. We are thinking of buying another larger 4 wheel van, do you think that we will consider anything from the Swift group?

I think Swift are just being bone idle. Somewhere in the system there simply must be a disc which is holding the graphics for your caravan.

I simply don't believe that graphics just over a year old can be obsolete.

The disc can be loaded into a CAD system and the section you want, run off in minutes. It ain't rocket science and someone at Swift needs a "swift" kick in the pants.

I have also found that when all else fails, Lodge Farm Leisure at Gunthorpe are quite good at supplying decals. Give them a call on 0115 966 5797 or go to:

Hi ToneisOK

The chap we spoke to at the Repairers seemed genuine enough and like Vic says, they need a swift kick in the pants.  It makes you wonder whether it's worth sticking with this group.  Has anyone else had any problems with Swift in getting parts.
