We all know that Eribas are susceptible to small dings, I imagine that any of these on all that polished aluminium would look pretty bad!

I wondered who is doing the conversion work to UK spec, there are so many differences - towing gear, road lights, electronic braking etc., not to mention mains voltage and electric appliances and probably gas fittings ! Will they be specially manufactured by Airstream or converted by Swift ?

Also it is no surprise that the recently announced Swift 'Basecamp' is a clone of the Airstream van of the same name !

I wonder if they will take a similar journey as the last European vans.
I think the BPW chassis were made in Germany, transported to America for the bodies to be fitted, and then shipped into Liverpool and then onwards for fitting out.

Is that the skeleton of a modern EU Airstream?

I'm not sure Robert. I came across it out of context on Facebook and don't remember ever seeing a pic before.

A lot of seams, and on a politically correct note, not a lot of black faces in there.
