Campervan insurance ideas
Hi,
We are in the process of purchasing a professionally converted Vauxhall Vivaro campervan. Do you have to go to a specialised insurer or can you get insurance from any company for a conversion? Also is there anything I need to know/be careful of? Thanks |

You could try the following ... Safeguard, Comfort, Aviva...
Check the small print, some insist on cat 1 alarms, trackers etc... Some insist the van is parked on your drive etc... We nearly got caught on the windscreen cover as most only cover £1200, but a new windscreen for ours would cost upwards of £2500+ Check the small print carefully as we found it's a minefield... |

Watching with interest.
We are with direct line. They only insure professionally converted vans and they won't insure personal contents in the van eg clothes, gadgets, etc. We have a VW transporter LWb. Will need to check the windscreen cover though as I thought it woukd be unlimited. |

Would just add that if you have breakdown cover through a bank account that you want to cover you (slightly different, I know) check the fine print for vehicle dimensions etc that you are covered.
