Motorhome sales in Germany are falling for a third year, and rental firm Vanever has gone bankrupt. Also: a new disposal point on Tenerife.
Two years on the road with a cat named Zhuzu — and not a single day of wanting to go back. We break down life in a camper van: where to find water, how heating works, what to do about electricity, and where to look for overnight spots. 7 countries, hundreds of places, and an honest account — from the mountain roads of Turkey to the coastline of Montenegro.
Comprehensive review of all RV and camper toilet types: cassette, portable, gravity, vacuum, macerating, dry flush, sealing, incinerating, composting and separating. Comparison of models, consumables, installation and annual costs.
Rémi Boukli, a 35-year-old engineer from France, spent 8 months and €20,000 converting a Renault Trafic into a camper with solar panels and up to 10 days of autonomy.
Renault has introduced the Trafic Escapade, a camper van based on a van, designed for daily use and weekend trips. The model accommodates up to seven people, features a compact kitchen, and is offered with 150 or 170 hp diesel engines. The starting price is €46,000, which is lower than key competitors like the Volkswagen California and Mercedes Marco Polo.
Two 21-year-old entrepreneurs from Les Sables-d’Olonne (Vendée) have developed a conversion kit for commercial vans. With the help of a New Zealand designer, they created the Oyat pack, compatible with about twenty models. The kit includes a table and a double bed, can be installed in five hours, and costs €3,990. Five units were sold in the first two weeks, and the company aims to sell around 40 kits by the end of summer.
On Sunday, August 23, around 150 caravans with an estimated 250-300 travelers illegally occupied private land in the commune of Krautergersheim (Bas-Rhin), 20 minutes from Strasbourg. Mayor René Hoelt said they would stay for two to three weeks, noting no damage so far. He added that complaints are ineffective and called for state action, citing a lack of suitable land.
The second gathering of adventure vehicles and vanlife, organized by the association Objectif raid, began on Friday in Sainte-Croix-en-Bresse and runs through Sunday. More than 200 vehicles are expected, including homemade motorhomes converted from school buses and medical trucks.
In Talant, near Dijon, around 100 motorhomes, caravans and camper vans occupied a sports field in May, costing the municipality €10,000 in water and electricity over three weeks. Mayor Adrien Guené ordered 1.5-tonne concrete blocks to block access, adding another €10,000 to the bill. Similar occupations occurred in Viry, Vourles and Tarnos, while Landes issued 29 eviction orders this year, up from 13 in the previous two years combined. The issue stems from a shortage of designated areas for travelling communities.
On RMC, a discussion addressed the issue of wild parking and litter left by motorhome owners. Participants, including journalists Carine Galli, Benjamin Müller, and Morad Aït-Habbouche, examined whether motorhomes have become a nuisance for local residents. The segment aired during the Estelle Midi program on RMC Story.
French company Sternytent, based near Pornic, has opened pre-orders for the patented Sternytrailer bike trailer, which converts into a shopping cart, suitcase, or folding table. Designed for motorhome and camper van travelers, the trailer features an aluminum frame, 16-inch wheels, a volume of 75 to 135 liters, and a payload of up to 45 kg. The first batch of 100 trailers is being assembled in the Pays de la Loire region.
The Motorhome and Camper Van Festival will take place from 4 to 7 September 2026 at the Kérampuilh site in Carhaix (Finistère). Opening hours are 10:00 to 18:00, with free entry. More information is available at www.carhaixpohertourisme.bzh.
