On the RTL Zwei show 'Bella Italia – Camping auf Deutsch', pensioners Hannes (72) and Christine (75) from Saxony plan a 'Venetian night' in their motorhome. The couple, married for over 50 years, uses this code word for romantic evenings. Christine promised her husband an intimate night if the beer they brewed in the motorhome turns out well. Hannes said that during such nights 'the caravan shakes, sparks fly'. Christine bought a nightgown to surprise her husband.
Italian company Tailage Gear has developed a conversion kit for the Toyota Land Cruiser 70 Series, turning it into a motorhome. Based on the extended three-door Land Cruiser 78, the kit weighs 100–120 kg and includes a modular setup with 2 or 4 berths, a kitchen with stove and oven, a 70-litre water tank, and solar panels. Prices range from €5,990 to €9,664 depending on options.
Italian company Atlantis, which builds motorhomes with a monocoque body in fiberglass or carbon fiber, has unveiled the Atlantis Mobility + project — a custom motorhome for a client with severe motor disabilities. Based on the De Luxe 695, the vehicle features a widened door, an external powered ramp, a reinforced floor with an aluminum honeycomb structure, and a fully gas-free layout (induction hob, orthopedic motorized bed with anti-decubitus mattress). The bathroom is made of fiberglass with a flush-floor shower tray, a sink shaped to allow wheelchair access, and grab bars. The electrical system includes solar panels, two lithium batteries totaling 400 Ah, and a 3 kWh inverter. The company is open to similar modifications on slightly smaller models like the 645, but advises against the 595 version due to limited wheelchair maneuverability.

Authorities in Butera, Sicily, sealed the Eurocamping Due Rocche campground and ordered an immediate evacuation of all guests. The closure followed an inspection by the NAS Carabinieri and municipal offices, which found the facility lacked required permits for accommodation and food service, had no health certificates for staff, and used water from a cistern that failed quality tests. Unauthorized concrete structures were also discovered on the site. Guests have five days to leave; the owner must demolish illegal constructions within a month.
