CHASSIS / MAINTENANCE
EXHAUST SYSTEM / ENVIRONMENT
Chassis and rear axle
Some models are built on a Fiat base vehicle,
the chassis of which has been converted
by AL-KO. This conversion provides a hot
dipped galvanised steel chassis coupled with
a wide track rear axle utilising steel torsion bar
suspension, imparting vastly improved stability
and road holding.
AL-KO exhaust system
A standard Fiat exhaust system is fitted,
utilising an AL-KO modified tail pipe, available
through your approved dealer. A standard Fiat
exhaust system is fitted to all other models,
with the addition of a Swift Group tail pipe.
Caring for the environment
After many years of service you may decide
that your motorhome has become beyond
economic repair and should be disposed
of. Please ensure that you comply with the
end of life vehicle legislation and take it to an
authorised treatment facility where it will be
properly dealt with to minimise any negative
environmental impact. The transaction will be
logged at the DVLA, identifying that you are no
longer the owner of the vehicle.
