I intend buying my first motorhome in the next few weeks. I have been looking at different insurers some of whom claim to cover your motorhome abroad for 360days. Having contacted them this appears to be a misrepresentation as I am being told that if you are out of the country for more than six months in a year then you lose your UK resident status resulting in a claim being declined as you must be a UK resident. So that seems to have scuppered my original plan of keeping UK plates and my insurance in UK. So it seems that I can take up UK insurance and go abroad but before six months are up I will need to re register with Portuguese plates and take out insurance there.
What experiences/ideas has any one got around this subject. I would like advice on the best route to insurance and whether I can avoid having to get Portuguese plates without having to spend 6 months in the UK. What else do I need to know before I dive in? Would really appreciate some sound advice from some experienced funsters!
All the best to you all Roge and Teri
