Inexpensive and particularly small alternative - the Mini 290 Caravan!

Small but fine - this designation fits perfectly to the Mini 290, a model from Trigano's Mini Freestyle series. Just under two meters high, with the lifting roof closed, the caravan impresses with its compactness and efficiency. The dimensions of 4,42×2,02 meters prove to be extremely space-saving and fuel-efficient, without having to forego the comfort of mobile life. The Mini 290 accommodates everything needed for a comfortable life on four wheels. A seating group that offers space for up to four people and can be converted into a comfortable bed measuring 190×140 centimeters in the evening is just one of the clever features. In addition, the Mini 290 offers a well-equipped kitchen with cooking facilities, sink and a sufficiently large absorber refrigerator that can be operated either with gas or electrically.

Ample storage space is provided by various cupboards and compartments, while a gas bottle for cooking is housed in a separate cabinet at the front. Also surprising for its size is the fact that the Mini 290 has a fully equipped bathroom with a toilet, sink and shower. The shower system is cleverly integrated into the tap and can be easily pulled out when needed. However, the compact size also has a disadvantage: the Mini 190 can be a bit too low for people over 290 centimeters, despite the lifting roof. For everyone else, however, this caravan is an attractive option if you appreciate the flexibility of traveling with a caravan.

Unlike a campervan, you can leave the accommodation on the pitch and drive to go shopping or explore the area. The starting price for the Mini 290 is EUR 16.990, making it a particularly affordable option. The accessories are also in the moderate range with a maximum price of 3.000 euros. The Mini 290 shows in an impressive way that mobile life doesn't have to be expensive.
