if it is the same as the abbey vogue 2009/10 then all is well.  Had one since new.  We do not use the shower in the van apart from storing fruit and veg during the day  so that is not an issue.  Some people like the dressing room arrangement so if that is you then this van is a no.  The bed requires agility so if you are not overweight and find it easy to leap up and doen then all is well.  I manage it ok although the bed length is not 100% for a 6'2 bloke it is fine.  I manage ok.   I have a friend who had the swift equivalent - not easy for him but he is 'larger' than me.  Kitchen is ok  although worktop could be better     fine van for 2  doubt if it is ok for 4

IDPMP thank you for your reply we have bit the bullet and put a deposit down we too will not be using the shower but we are caravan club members and rally a lot we were finding it a real pain in the arse to make the beds up on our Amara 380/2 although it did us for six years plus. I could not fault the build quality of the coachman only reason we did not go for another coachman was the size of the overall fixed bed caravans as we like to keep it on our drive because we use it most weekends lets hope e get as much enjoyment out of it....
