Motorhome service area on Viale Marini closed for six months
Original source: Reportpistoia

The motorhome service area on Viale Marini in Pistoia has been closed since November 2025. A renovation project, which includes reducing spaces and introducing fees, was approved in late 2024, with a contract signed in May 2026, but work has barely started. Local and traveling motorhome owners are unable to use the area, harming the local economy.

The motorhome parking area on Via del Triangolo in Montalto Marina, recently opened, already shows signs of poor maintenance. Visitors report overgrown weeds on the gravel surface, untended green areas, and possible presence of rats and snakes. They are calling on authorities to carry out cleaning, vegetation cutting, and an overall inspection to ensure safety and usability.

Automatic barriers at the camper parking area on Via Dorando Petri in Oristano have been damaged: parts are torn off, cables exposed, and components scattered on the asphalt. The cause—vandalism or accidental hits during camper maneuvers—is unclear. The barriers were installed earlier this year with regional funding of €15,000 to control access to the parking lot.

Roller Team has unveiled the Kronos Fit 235 TL, the shortest model in the Kronos Fit range at 5.99 metres long and 2.15 metres wide, built on a Ford Transit and homologated for four occupants. Instead of a rear garage, it uses a pull-out platform for a scooter or two e-bikes. The maximum permissible weight remains 3,500 kg, requiring careful accounting of optional equipment and payload. German magazine Promobil estimated in April 2026 a starting price below €70,000, while a French price list quotes €63,991 for the 165 hp version; no official Dutch price for the 2027 model has been published.

The municipality of Montechiaro d'Acqui has secured €90,000 in funding from Gal Borba to build a new camper area. The project includes 5–6 pitches, an electric entry barrier, water, electricity and wastewater connections, and electric charging points. Work will begin in the coming days and is scheduled for completion by spring 2027. The area will complement existing tourist facilities such as a holiday home and an albergo diffuso system.

Italian manufacturer Roller Team has unveiled the new Kronos Fit 235TL motorhome. It measures 5.99 m long, 2.15 m wide and 2.89 m high, with 4 berths. Inside, there is a spacious lounge that converts into a bedroom, a bathroom with a flat shower, and a kitchen with two gas burners and a 150-litre fridge. A compressor fridge is optional. The starting price is €63,790 excluding options and discounts. In Spain, it comes with the Kronos Fit pack (165 hp, upgraded interior) at no extra cost; an automatic gearbox adds €2,000. Sales in Spain begin in the coming weeks.

A Polish couple described their transition to vanlife, starting with a first trip to Italy after buying a 20-year-old used motorhome in July 2025. Before buying, they rented a similar-age motorhome in May 2025, which helped identify faults. For Italy, they installed Starlink, upgraded the solar battery and all-season tyres, and completed pet documentation, including a rabies vaccination at least 21 days before travel.
