Motorhome bought for 2.75 million SEK was assembled from spare parts

A Norwegian couple purchased a Hymer motorhome from dealer Kroken Caravan for 2.75 million SEK, described as being of 'excellent quality'. The day after delivery, a tag reading 'donor car' was found on the key. An inspection revealed faults in 12 out of 13 points, including loose bolts and exposed wiring. Repairs to make the vehicle safe were estimated at 2.5 million SEK. Before the case reached the appeals court, the dealer agreed to cancel the sale.

Rental motorhome market grows in Tromsø ahead of summer

Three companies in Tromsø — Touring Cars, Indie Campers, and Arctic Campers — plan to have around 150 vehicles on the roads this season. Touring Cars, established in Tromsø in 2022, reported revenue of NOK 36 million and operating profit of NOK 4.7 million. Arctic Campers noted a slight decline in advance bookings, attributing it to new market entrants and uncertainty around travel and fuel. The majority of renters are international tourists, many on their first motorhome trip.
