Autocruise - really gone bust?   
Can anyone post a link to a reliable web site carrying information about 
Autocruise and whether or not they have gone belly up?

I had a quick google last night and didn't turn very much hard evidence 
up, just mutterings on forum sites.



regards

I did read somewhere that the Swift group had taken them over.

Correct,

Autocruise still in business and are now part of the Swift Group, which also 
includes Swift, Bessacar & Ace.

Far from going oiut of business they seem to be making more new models, 
especially the larger coachbuilts on the new Fiat Ducato X2/50 chassis.

You could simply buy a copy of MMM or PMH and see their advertisment pages 
or go to http://www.autocruise.co.uk/pages/newsevents.php#

O dear, been bought by swift is probably worse than going bust ! Autocruise 
were not a bad product but now with swift in charge they will be leaking 
water within a couple years. Not to mention swifts customer care (or lack of 
it)

Only time will tell!

As a recent convert to Motorhoming and an Adria owner with no personal 
experience to owning or using other brands (apart from chatting with other 
ownres when at campsites) I can't comment.

Have Swift really improved that much? 2 years without leaking sounds a
bit far fetched to me.
