Insurance

[HappySCL]

Hi everyone
I’m just starting to look at insurance for our new Adria Tein Supreme SGX.
I looked at a company called Comfort ( through Aviva) who have said that they won’t give the the vehicle the cover that they would for a coach built home because it’s a Van conversation! For example if I was insuring a coach built vehicle they would give £5k personal belongings cover but only £1k for a van. Is this common? And does anyone know why?

A similar question was mentioned not that long ago on the forum, unfortunately I can't remember who it was though, I'll see if I can find it.

Its on this thread, there may be other differences too:

Panel Van Conversion - Is it a Campervan or a Motorhome?

What makes the vehicle into a Motorhome rather than a Campervan? On the C&CC website I could book my vehicle based on it's length and width to a grass pitch if it is a campervan, but the same dimensions won't allow a booking as a motorhome. To me a campervan is effectively one large living...

You need to insist it is a motorcaravan and not a home conversion van or a standard empty van (ie no hab stuff).
