Last February while in Portugal I expected a renewal quote from C&CC as had happened for the last 5 years. When a quite didn’t arrive I contacted them to be told they’d emailed me to say they couldn’t offer me insurance - I was shocked (I’d been with them for many years). They said my usual broker had decided they couldn’t cover me as my van was parked on the road and because of my postcode neither of which was different to the god knows how many years I’d been with them. I don’t know why this suddenly happened … Anyway, eventually they found me a quote, literally 3x my usual price but because I was in Portugal and panicking I accepted it. So, I’m hoping to find something cheaper this year, before I leave in January. Does anyone know how far in advance I can get a quote? I tried to get one online a while ago but at the end of all the form-filling I was told they couldn’t offer anything - I didn’t know if it was because the renewal date was too far ahead or because of my blooming postcode! My current insurance expires February 23rd. Can anyone recommend an insurer for older vans? Does anyone get insurance for a van parked on the road? Sorry for the long preamble!
