Used 2022 Swift Challenger X 860 – 4 Berth 8ft Wide Caravan with Rear Island Bed
If you have been looking for a caravan that truly feels like a home away from home, this 2022 Swift Challenger X 860 is a superb contender. The 'X' stands for extra width, and at 8ft wide, the difference in internal space compared to a standard caravan is immediately noticeable. We find this layout particularly popular with couples who want a dedicated bedroom and an en-suite feel, thanks to the central washroom design. It features a modern L-shaped lounge which really opens up the floor space. As with all our used caravans, it has undergone a comprehensive workshop inspection and full damp check, ensuring it is safe, dry, and ready for your next adventure.

INTERIOR HIGHLIGHTS
-
Lounge: The first thing you will notice is the space. The L-shaped seating configuration combined with the 8ft bodyshell creates a very open, social area. It is perfect for relaxing in front of the TV, and it converts into a double bed if you have guests.
-
Kitchen: Swift has equipped this model well. You get a full Thetford oven and separate grill, a microwave, and a dual-fuel hob (3 gas, 1 electric). It also features the Dometic Series 10 fridge, which is dual-hinged for easy access.
-
Bedroom: At the rear, you have a desirable island bed. This means no climbing over each other at night. The bed features a Duvalay mattress for excellent comfort.
-
Washroom: The ‘860’ layout features a central washroom split across the middle of the van. You have a shower cubicle on one side and the toilet/vanity on the other. You can close the doors to create a private en-suite dressing area separate from the lounge.
-
Heating: This caravan is fitted with Alde wet central heating. This system uses radiators (like in your house) rather than blown air, making it quiet and efficient—perfect for year-round touring.

EXTERIOR HIGHLIGHTS
-
Wide Body Construction: The 8ft width (2.45m) gives this caravan a planted, stable feel on the road and massive volume inside. It is built using Swift’s SMART construction with a timber-less body frame.
-
Solar Panel: A 100W roof-mounted solar panel is fitted as standard, which is essential for maintaining your leisure battery health while in storage.
-
External Features: It comes with an external BBQ point and a 230v mains socket, which we think are essentials for modern caravanning.
-
Safety: This model sits on an AL-KO chassis and includes the AL-KO ATC (Automatic Trailer Control) system, which provides extra stability when towing a larger vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is an 8ft wide caravan difficult to tow? While it is wider than a standard 7ft 6in caravan, most drivers adjust to the extra width very quickly. The main thing to be aware of is the need for extended towing mirrors. The benefit is the incredible extra space you get inside.
2. What is Alde heating? Alde heating uses a boiler and fluid-filled radiators to heat the caravan, much like a central heating system in a house. We find it provides a more even, consistent heat than standard blown-air systems, and it is silent running.
3. Does this caravan have the Swift Command system? Yes, this 2022 model features the Swift Command touchscreen panel above the door. This allows you to control lighting, heating, and check battery levels. You can even pair it with a mobile app to control features remotely.
4. What checks do you do before I collect it? We take safety seriously. Before you collect the caravan, it goes through our workshop for a comprehensive service. This includes checking the gas, electrics, water systems, chassis, and brakes. Crucially, we perform a full damp report to ensure the bodyshell is sound.
