Used camper market: from budget Volkswagen to costly integral
Original source: Autobahn

In Brief

Three used campers are listed in the Netherlands: a Volkswagen LT35 for 2000 euros, an LT 28 for 6950 euros, and an integral for 40,000 euros. Experts warn of hidden costs for heavy models.

On the Dutch platform Marktplaats, a 1980s Volkswagen LT35 camper is offered for 2000 euros. The seller targets festival visitors (e.g., Zwarte Cross) and DIY enthusiasts. The vehicle is fully equipped for living: sleeping area, kitchen, cabinets. The LT35 was produced from 1975 to 1996, known for its simple construction and available parts.

Also available is a 1983 Volkswagen LT 28 for 6950 euros. At 40 years old, it is exempt from road tax and has a valid MOT for two years. Mileage is over 56,000 km, engine power 75 hp. The owner notes the interior needs work.

Meanwhile, buying a used integral camper for 40,000 euros may seem attractive, but real costs include vehicle tax, fuel, maintenance, and storage. Such vehicles often exceed 3.5 tonnes, requiring a B license and higher tax. Fuel consumption can reach 12 L/100 km, and repairs of complex systems (e.g., panoramic windshield) are expensive. Experts recommend calculating a five-year budget including all fixed and variable costs.

The 3-3-3 rule for slow travel in motorhomes

The 3-3-3 rule, promoted as a camping trend for summer 2026, limits daily driving to 300 km, arrival by 3:00 PM, and a minimum stay of three nights per site. Adapted from the US version (300 miles), it aims to reduce driving stress and campsite booking pressure. In Italy, the rule suits mountainous roads and traffic, allowing travelers to explore regions more thoroughly.

De Wild to host Radio 2 morning and afternoon shows from camper again

Ruud de Wild will swap the NPO Radio 2 studio for a camper from July 27 for a week during 'Ruud du Soleil'. He will present both his own afternoon show and the morning show while traveling with his team towards southern France. Live broadcasts will air from French campsites and historic locations, also on NPO 1 Extra. The project marks the transition between the old and new morning shows: Jan-Willem Roodbeen and Jeroen Kijk in de Vegte leave on July 31, replaced by Daniël Lippens and Roelof de Vries from August 3.

Easy Caravanning GetAway CS with fold-out bed arrives at dealers

Dutch manufacturer Easy Caravanning has started dealer deliveries of the GetAway CS. It is the production version of the GetAway TB prototype shown in October 2025. The caravan measures 4 metres in length and 1.85 metres in width, and features a fixed transverse double bed (2.10×1.45 metres), part of which folds outwards through a luggage hatch when parked. The rear seating area converts into a child bed (1.70 metres long), with an optional upper bunk, providing sleeping capacity for up to four people. The model lacks a traditional front locker, freeing up interior space; a pop-up roof with panoramic windows adds headroom and light. The GetAway CS is built in the Netherlands and is now on display at selected dealers.
