Now that the purchase of our new German motorhome has been finalised, I thought I'd share our experience of trying to insure it on the vin number.
The advice and information on Fun, including that on insurance, has been invaluable to us through the whole process of buying the van, and we are very grateful. We couldn't have done it without you!
So here's our experience of getting insurance.
Comfort - Call centre unable to understand what we were talking about
NFU - 'We only do it for existing cutomers' (We're not existing customers)
Saga -'We don't do it' (We were existing customers)
AIB (recommended as offering discount to Fun members) 'We don't do it. We only insure vehicles once they've been registered with British plates. It's not usual for individuals to import a vehicle. It's normally just dealers who do it. We've never heard of Motorhome Fun.'
Safeguard - Helpful, knowledgeable and reasonably-priced!
