The Diesel-Gate scandal continues - this time, manipulation in the field of exhaust gas standards in Germany alone may affect up to 200,000 vehicles of the Fiat and IVECO brands. Three months after the raid on the Fiat Chrysler (FCA) headquarters and official information from law enforcement agencies, the first customers are turning to legal instruments. At the beginning of November, the German prosecutor's office has already recorded 300 lawsuits, and more are regularly coming. The actions of the prosecutor's office are aimed at fraud in the use of the so-called disconnecting devices during the flue gas cleaning process. In July this year, law enforcement simultaneously entered the headquarters of FCA Germany in Frankfurt am Main, Iveco in Ulm and several other entities related to the concern in Italy and Switzerland. Nine suspects were charged, including 3 people employed by Fiat Chrysler and 6 related to sister concern CNH Industrial (owner of IVECO).

Traveling is a wonderful time for those who close the doors of their own homes and move forward. Often with whole families, wanting to spend unforgettable moments, get to know the beauty of nature, the flavors of the visited regions and relax in beautiful places. Each expedition is carefully thought out, located on a map with marked places worth visiting that should not be missed. Sometimes we take our children with us when we go camping . A toddler will have fun on a playground, a colorful ball and water in the pool, but teenagers are much more demanding. During trips, they look for experiences, curiosities, and sometimes silence and solitude, which is not easy to find at school or in a full house. When looking for beautiful places in Europe, you can also find suitable campsites for young people, offering sophisticated entertainment. Now you can expect good fun in many places, which undoubtedly makes it easier to find a suitable stop for every participant of the expedition, regardless of age.

One vacation , no matter how long, is not enough to enjoy it. Beautiful nature, secular and sacred monuments, numerous festivals and other cultural events, rich cuisine ... This and much more await tourists at any time of the year. We encourage you to get to know all the regions, and we especially recommend the north-eastern part, especially around Venice. A holiday here is a guarantee of the weather, golden beaches and not camping sites , but camping towns with swimming pools. If you would like to stay in a resort that has at least several swimming pools, go to Camping Sant'Angelo Village , for example. It is located 21 km east of Venice and has a very good reputation.

Being in Croatia and not visiting Istria is like visiting Zakopane and not going on a trip to the Tatra Mountains. In other words, to see only a small fraction of the attractions this beautiful region has to offer. For tourists waiting, among others the historic town of Pula, the Brijuni National Park, a postcard view of the center of Rovinj and what the peninsula is most famous for - warm, clear water and beaches with Blue Flag status.

4-wheel-drive expedition vehicles are becoming more and more popular, but not only fans of off-road adventures want additional traction - whoever has been in the mountains in a motorhome in winter knows how useful grip is in white powder or on icy routes. When you add to this more reliable performance in all road conditions all year round, it is hardly surprising that the all-wheel drive segment is becoming more and more popular. Among fans of motorhome tourism (especially winter), for example, semi-integrated 4WD based Mercedes Sprinter are very popular. However, this is an extremely costly investment that only a few can afford.

A few days ago, during a press conference, the HYMER brand presented the result of several years of research and development in the field of "connectivity". The complete, integrated peripheral management system for MasterLine models based on the Mercedes Sprinter has been lightened. At first glance, this is just another "app" that there are plenty of on the market, but appearances can be deceiving. There are plenty of smartphone applications to control the on-board electronics, but it is difficult to enjoy such functionality if each device requires a separate program, configuration and connection.

The vast majority of customers, when choosing a motorhome for a configuration of 4 people for driving and sleeping, avoid the "tin" segment with a wide berth for fear not even of discomfort while driving, but of a crush and inconvenience at a standstill. Adria Twin Sports with the designation 640SGX is an extremely successful and thoughtful design based on an interesting patent of an integrated lifting composite roof, which can be an excellent alternative to larger semi-integrated vehicles. In combination with the considerable height of the model and the panoramic window in the front part of the vehicle, we get an amazing impression of space. However, these are not the end of the advantages of this extraordinary vehicle.
