I don't think Swift are in trouble.  They are probably taking action to make sure they won't be in trouble.  They do have a good product and even without alu-tech they eel compete well against Bailey.  I just feel really sorry for the folk that have been laid off, and their families.

90 people is an awful lot to let go, i would have thought they'd get busy at this time of year to satisfy orders at the upcoming show, are the new vans a desperate attempt to get some new biz after the onslaught of alu-tek? i prefer swifts to baileys, especially the outside, alu-tek baileys are soooo boring, but the wife preferred the interior of the unicorn to conqueor when we had a butchers recently, not wanting to chnge, just nosey! and she seriously influences what we buy caravan-wise. i just hope swift aren't in trouble, i never want to see a company go. as an aside, don't the new sport vans look like adrias?
