Hi Is there anyone with a recent model Symbol that can tell me whether the drivers seat turns round completely.

I know from experience of other AS motorhomes that there is quite a bit of moving the seat backwards and forwards to turn the seat completely but so far I have only been able the turn the drivers seat about half way.

thanks

    Not sure about a Symbol but on a Kemerton it only goes just over half way.

    Thanks David

    The Symbol is the same. It catches on the wood upright on the seat support. I think it could be altered so when I  next go to Broadway I will call at the factory and ask Mark about it.

    Oddly enough on the AS website all PVCs plan view drawings show only the passenger seat facing the rear!?

    Our first van was a rebadged Symbol (an Orion) only the passenger seat swivelled completely.

    from the AS website...

    • Swivel cab seats on all front lounge models

    it may require a bit of shunting, as you say, but also ensure the adjustable steering wheel is fully pushed home towards the dash.....

    Write your comments here...Good point BB, we have had to do the slide back and forth to get the seats to swivel, did not think to push the steering wheel right in DOH!!

    At the point when the swivel is obstructed the steering wheel is not in the way. The obstruction is caused by the wood surround of the seating behind.

    Yes,  bad design but I think it can be easily altered though I will wait until I go to the factory.

    Thanks everyone for comments. I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something simple.
