Abandoned motorhome auctioned for 1 franc: bids soar to over 700 francs

The Winterthur city police are auctioning an abandoned Fiat Ducato 290/14 motorhome on Ricardo, which stood on a parking lot for about a year. The starting price was 1 franc; by early Thursday afternoon the highest bid exceeded 700 francs. The 1990 vehicle has 213,657 km on the odometer and is sold without keys, documents, or any warranty on its technical condition. The buyer must pick it up within two weeks or face a penalty of 1000 francs. The auction runs until July 31, 12:00.

No evidence of gas used to drug motorhome occupants during burglaries

Rumors that burglars use soporific gas to drug motorhome occupants before stealing have persisted for years, but forensic evidence does not support them. European police have never arrested anyone for using such gas or found traces of it in burgled motorhomes or victims' blood. Medical experts deem the method highly improbable, as effective anesthetics would require bulky equipment and pose a lethal risk. The vast majority of motorhome thefts occur without chemical sedation.

First Swiss adults-only campsite fully booked after death threats

The «Lazy Rancho» campsite in Unterseen, near Interlaken (BE), is fully booked after being converted into an adults-only (16+) zone last year. The move initially sparked a backlash, including death threats and fake bookings, but owners Cheyenne and Virginia Blatter report a calmer atmosphere and fewer conflicts. According to Schweiz am Wochenende, the site now attracts guests seeking relaxation, such as Scandinavian couples cycling or paragliding by day and wanting quiet nights.
