Couple sold their house to live in a motorhome
Original source: actu.fr

Michèle and Alain Réguillon sold their house in Annonay (Ardèche) five years ago and moved into a 11.5 m Concorde Liner motorhome. They are attending the heavy motorhome club rally in Moréac (Morbihan) from May 14 to 17, 2026. The couple travels across France year-round, avoiding highways, and consumes about 20 L/100 km. A new comparable vehicle costs €700,000–800,000; their 13-year-old unit had 48,000 km at purchase.

On 3 September, customs officers in Hendaye stopped a motorhome travelling from Spain to Germany and found 334.40 kg of cocaine and 485.20 kg of cannabis resin. A sniffer dog indicated the front of the vehicle, where a concealment space spanning the full height was discovered. The drugs have an estimated retail value of nearly 15 million euros. The driver was remanded in custody and is due to appear in court in Bayonne on 12 October.

The municipality of Guerlédan held a series of inaugurations with institutional partners on 19 September. The first was the motorhome site on Route du Lac, open only for the summer season, which has already recorded more than 2,300 overnight stays since opening. Other completed works included the Sainte-Suzanne crossroads, a school access road, the church square, a commercial unit and public toilets.

The motorhome stopover in Préfailles (Loire-Atlantique) is full even in late September amid rising petrol prices in France. Holidaymakers are shortening trips or distances: a Nantes resident, Marie-Louise, came with her husband for three days instead of a longer stay, and Daniel now travels for a few days rather than several months. Belgians Corinne and Pierrot are on a three-week tour of France, avoiding toll motorways to stay within budget.

On Monday at around 16:40 on the RN70 (northern branch of the RCEA) in the direction of Montceau-les-Mines to Chalon-sur-Saône, a truck driver misjudged the slowing traffic before the Pont Jeanne Rose roundabout. The truck collided with a motorhome and a car, triggering a chain-reaction crash involving other vehicles. Four people were injured: a 78-year-old man and woman in the motorhome, and men aged 57 and 24; all were taken to Hôtel-Dieu hospital. Traffic was cut for over an hour, causing a queue from the Pont des Morands exit to La Fiole.
