I just got back from short trip to Germany. If you liked Rialta so much you
would love the endless
choices in Europe in conversions and small motorhomes like Fiat, not much bigger
than Eurovan. There were a lot of camper styles of Vanagons(called transporters
and jokers there).Just about any van brand
was converted, most diesel powered.
