Compare Motorhome Insurance

I haven't picked up my motor home yet, I'm still perusing insurers but I've had a firm quote from Comfort of £318.00 + £58.00 for breakdown cover. That gives me 365 days cover in Europe. It's for a '98 Herald with Transit 2.5 Diesel. Any suggestions as to where I might get a better quote giving the same cover please?
 
motorhome insurance

i have found that caravan guard give realy good deals i have been with them four five years . had caravan insured first then motor home
 
I just had an on-line quote from Safeguard £326, inc 365 days European cover + AA breakdown cover, I elected to pay first £250 of claims. The only thing I don't know is if it has a limit on annual mileage, I need up 10K per annum. I'm still looking

Edit: I just called Safeguard, it's unlimited mileage.

I'm with Frank Pickles, have no no-claims as I have had a company car for the last 10 years but for a 17 year old Fiat Ducato 1.9td they insured me for £172 with 90 days cover abroad.

Pretty good I think.

No sorry, I joined The AA for that £180, wish I had joined ADAC instead,they are much cheaper.
Had to call the AA when I broke down in Germany they used ADAC anyway
 
Sure Term

I'm a 1st timer & went with Sure Term great rate & within days had my 1st claim.They have been great let me take it to a local repairer. Cost over 2K approved within a couple of days:D

I have always been with ADAC, still am, though I now live in Cornwall. Perhaps you can change over on your next renewal, or, is it possible to cancel, get a refund on the months remaing and join the ADAC?

It might sound good in theory but in practice it is difficult to see how it would work. Everybody has different needs and circumstances - age, length of driving experience, accident record, size of engine, size of van, age of van, extent of use, country of use, location of storage, etc etc. That is why the comparison sites ask you so many questions. And the information they have is constantly being updated; ours would not be. It is clear from previous threads that a company which is regarded as the bees knees by one poster wouldn't be touched with a barge pole by the next. For what its worth, I use Safeguard and have found it to be the cheapest and best for my needs and circumstances (just over £300 currently for a five year old 3.5 tonne van and with 12 months European cover, including breakdown recovery)

I totally agree with you, no driver, requirements type of motorhome, value etc are the same and therefore direct comparison on a blog would be very difficult to comply, just form members experiences. it would be better trying to contact "Compare the Market .com to include MH's.

My cost comparison with Safeguard has resulted that my cost was quotes over £350 and with another company only £250. I had the same huge varience in last years quote too. Safeguard, do not give me the best quote.

PS.My insurance also includes Euro cover, Breakdown recovery, £60 excess on windscreen and £250 general excess.

Oyez oyez :welcome::wave: 'ting is what a bout a wee section then from our own in fo about which insurance companies won't insure what ?:cry:
per example I have two vans One is a Northways converted ( via John Knight) Mercedes Vito 1998 I have it with Shield. Shield however wouldn't take my classic Autosleepers 1984 Renault Rimini so that's with Fluix( almost exactly the same quotes circa £215 . Other companies wouldn't take me 'cos I am 75 (and dancing too):dance:.
Or a list of who WILL take what-basics like age ( van and or driver etc) .
decent discounts for two more more vans.....or van and car; alternate vehicle use ( will ANYONE quote for this?) ..allthese sort of things that you have to fill out a bloody cheeky and involved form to get an answer you want to saVE TIJME WASTE :

'nother useful bit info who restrficts time abroad......too many allow only 90 days which n ot enough for a good Euro tour if you retired or have time off.:cool1::juggle:
Maybe thjat's the way to go?
