Hope you don't mind if I ask a couple of questions.
I like the open look of the plan but there does not seem to be much wardrobe type storage space - am I missing something or is that the point?
On the plan again - If it is much the same same as your present Swift why go for another one now?
At 60G I think it very unlikely that I would buy a new one (although I still buy a lottery ticket every week ) so I'm particularly curious to know about problems with older ones.

Hi
Yes the layout is similar to my present little girl....that's why I like it. The new van is also four feet longer than this one. The new 669 however is only 3 feet 3 longer than the new 665. Part of the extra length on the new one is "at the nose", with some inside.
Warbrobe space - is an increas of about 30% compared to this one. Here I have one wardrobe and the new van has two. Admittedly the two are narrower, but I do gain a fair bit.
Also, I gain an extra three cupboards (overhead) and the galley has more work top area. (I have the actual dimensions). This means, for example, the draining board can stay in situ and I still have worktop free.
The loo area is a bit better too, plus better storage all round.
I particularly like the look of "closing the bedroom" off. This van always seems untidy with the duvet on the bed etc. I can pull a divider across now - but then have to open it to get to the loo!
All will be revealed in June, no doubt!

Russell - congratulations and I knew Oscar would get his way We are just back from the show in Glasgow and they have the "existing" Kontiki there, but they said the new one would not be available until the NEC show. Even the sales people seemed quite excited about the prospects for the new ones.
Hope you can bear to wait until June
