Vigo opposition calls for motorhome parking regulation
Original source: VigoÉ

In Brief

Opposition leader Luisa Sánchez urges Vigo city council to adopt a municipal ordinance regulating motorhome parking and to create at least one serviced area.

Luisa Sánchez, leader of the opposition in Vigo (People's Party), has called on the city council to adopt a municipal ordinance regulating motorhome parking and to set up at least one serviced area. She noted that, unlike other major cities in Galicia, Vigo has no municipal motorhome area and lacks daytime parking in tourist zones.

Sánchez linked the lack of infrastructure to the recent introduction of a tourist tax: the city charges visitors but provides no basic services. According to industry representatives, the average daily spending of a motorhome traveller is about 250 euros. Sánchez also recalled that mayor Abel Caballero promised to create such an area in 2019, but the promise remains unfulfilled.

Mayor José Cacabelos Rico urged residents and political groups to submit proposals for a municipal ordinance regulating the parking of motorhomes, camper vans, and caravans, aiming for enactment before next summer. He stated that the municipality lacks public parking spaces and that acquiring land in the city center or near beaches is difficult due to high costs and failed negotiations with owners. The goal is to prevent uncontrolled parking, especially in beach and dune areas, which have seen massive influxes in recent years.

Spanish manufacturer Ciclope has unveiled the Mencia 420 and 420e campervans based on the Ford Transit, replacing the Maxus Deliver 9 chassis. Prices in Spain start at 64,495 euros for the Mencia 420 and 72,760 euros for the 420e, excluding VAT, delivery and registration. Both are six-metre campervans with gas-free heating, induction cooking and a 150 Ah lithium battery; the 420e features a pop-top roof and four berths.

The prosecutor's office in Santa Cruz de Tenerife has requested a three-year prison sentence for a man accused of misappropriating €53,000 in a motorhome sale. Buyers paid €53,000 as a partial deposit for a vehicle priced at €86,000 but never received the motorhome or a refund despite repeated demands. Although the seller's son is the official partner and manager, the father acted as the authorized agent and controlled the company, leading prosecutors to charge him with taking the money.

A motorhome based on the Lada Granta, previously unknown to the European market, appeared in Spain and attracted attention from specialized media. However, buyers face a shortage of spare parts and difficulties with registration due to the engine not meeting Euro emission standards. The price starts at 13,000 euros, and the interior includes a double bed, kitchen, and shower. Experts note that the case is more an exception than the start of a mass trend, due to the lack of dealer support and strict safety requirements.
