The camper market is experiencing a real explosion. Prices on the secondary market have skyrocketed, and factories can't keep up with orders for new vehicles. The product is therefore very scarce. In addition, when something interesting appears on the horizon, potential buyers literally "fight" to get the car they want. However, when looking for opportunities, it often happens that our vigilance is reduced. Since we are talking about camping vehicles related to our hobby and associated with pleasure, family and travel, we may not keep a sober mind in the purchasing process. Act impulsively, in a frenzy, often looking through rose-colored glasses. However, we must realize that this purchasing process is no different from purchasing a family car for everyday driving. In addition, we are talking about considerable amounts in these transactions.

It is possible and more and more such places are being created. Agro- tourism , farms and vineyards are more and more willing to join the centers that accept campers.

It is located 10 km from Sandomierz. The vineyard is run by young, fantastic people who decided to rebuild the vineyard of their ancestors. Monika and Marceli organize tasting their wines combined with visiting the place. During such a trip you will learn not only how they care for their plants. You will also visit the vineyard's backyard, the place where wine is produced in the final stage. We have participated in such tastings several times and we learn something new each time. Marceli, depending on the current season, tells about other elements important during a given stage of wine production . He also talks about his family roots in a very interesting way.

On January 16, 2021, the historic merger of Fiat-Chrysler ( FCA ) and Peugeot-Citroen ( PSA ) took place. As a result of this merger, the fourth largest automotive concern will be created, which is to be called Stellantis . The merger will have a clear impact on the camper van base vehicle market. Although FCA and PSA have a joint production, they have so far competed in terms of distribution. Stellantis will achieve a market share of 75% after the merger of Fiat with Citroen and Peugeot. As expected, this state of affairs, despite fluctuations, should not translate into data for 2020.
