    The warranty can be transferred to new owners, in 2 ways. You can either contact the Swift Group, quoting the build number of the motorhome. Alternatively, your Swift Group Dealer can update the files, via the online aftersales system. In order for the warranty to be transferred, the terms and conditions must be adhered to, particularly the annual servicing.

    The benefit of the Extended 10 Year Body Shell warranty for 2012 onward coachbuilt models is transferrable up to 6 years with the additional 4 years being non transferrable to new owners and applicable to the original registered keeper of the vehicle only. Further details are available from Swift Group.
