German Federal Fiscal Court: Luxury motorhome sales can be tax-exempt

Germany's highest fiscal court has ruled that the short-term resale of expensive motorhomes is not necessarily subject to speculation tax. The decision stems from a case where a Saxon couple sold a motorhome for €315,000 a few months after purchase. The court classified the motorhome as an item for personal use, which is an exception to the one-year tax rule for private sales.

Study proposes limiting motorhomes on 24 beaches in Fuerteventura to combat overcrowding

Researchers from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria have published a study proposing parking limits for motorhomes on 24 beaches on the northern coast of Fuerteventura (between El Cotillo and Corralejo). The physical capacity of the beaches was estimated at 7,761 people, but after accounting for wind, rain, bird sensitivity, and lack of services, the effective capacity drops to 557 users. Based on this, the study recommends 159 parking spaces for the entire analyzed coastline to prevent unregulated parking and environmental damage.
