Czech campers get more sophisticated: conversions of used vans lose popularity
Original source: www.denik.cz

In Brief

Czech company Fullvans from Terešov reports that 90% of orders are now for new vehicles, not used ones as two to three years ago. The extra cost for a new chassis pays off through lower service costs and higher resale value.

Czech company Fullvans from Terešov (Rokycany district) notes a shift in trend: while two to three years ago most orders were for conversions of used vans, now 90% of clients choose new chassis. According to co-owner Petr Fulin, the extra 150,000–200,000 CZK for a new chassis pays off through lower service costs and higher resale value.

Base model

The company offers the Siesta Classic model based on the Fiat Ducato, 541 cm long. Standard equipment includes a double bed, bathroom (shower, toilet), kitchen, heating, and water tanks. Price starts at 1 million CZK (about 40,000 EUR). Production time is less than one month.

Fullvans produces about a dozen campers per month and offers a two-year warranty on the conversion.
