Hi everyone, we are picking up our first motorhome next week, just looking for some advice regarding insurance, what we should look for and the best company’s to use.
Also as we are complete newbies any other hints and tips are welcome, thanks all 😊

For insurance you will probably have to phone round a few places (also use the search function on here for threads on insurance).

In the past we have used AiB who give funster discount but now have the exact same policy via the Caravan and Motorhome Club and a lot cheaper.

NFU have a good reputation (but haven't used them so no personal recommendation)


Oh, if you also have a car ask for a "mirror" for your NCD and also a new business discount.

Hi and Welcome.

Insurance companies are exactly the same as your car insurance providers, so shop round find what suits your needs and play them off against each other for more competitive prices.

Best bit of advice for a newbie, pay the 15 quid subscription to be a paid member here…….it will be the best 15 quid you spend on your motorhome.

Oh……and the most important bit of advice is ENJOY your MOTORHOME.👍🏼

Thanks I’ve just subscribed 😊
You won’t regret it…….rest assured whatever your question or problem is, there will be somebody on her that has had the same question or issue, solved it and will be willing to help you.

There’s loads of motorhome boffins on here and one or two more jokers, who I’m sure will be along later.👍🏼

Since 2010
A tip I found useful was to take notes in handover [still forgot half of the instructions later ] and try a night on the drive or in a very near overnight camping spot first time so anything forgotten is not a disaster .
And Lists............ - have a list of lists you will need [:LOL::LOL::LOL: I still make these each trip ]
Enjoy xx
