We have been with Comfort Insurance on and off over the last 3 or 4 years and have previously been very happy with their prices and service.

However, I called them this morning to renew the insurance on our current motorhome (Cheyenne) and explained that we have a new model (Dakota) on order - to make sure that there would be no problem changing over the insurance in May and.........they won't insure us unless our Cobra Tracker (that our dealer is fitting) is a Thatcham Cat 5!!!!

Now I thought a tracker would be the best/safest option and incurr a healthy discount but obviously I was wrong.

Off to start trawling through the other companies to see who will insure us now.

NOT HAPPY!

I have always used caravan guard for motorgome insurance and found them very well priced. Getting a new van on friday and they are only charging me an extra £25. Considering the difference in value of the two vans I thought that was good.

I also got a good quote from Crusader leisure vehicle insurance.

Hi Dave

Thanks for that.

Comfort did say no extra to change from the Cheyenne to the Dakota, other than a £15 admin fee, but then came up with the tracker nonsense.

Have since spoken to the Caravan Club who've undercut Comfort by £25.  Unfortunately they cannot tell me this far in advance how much extra (if any) it will be for the Dakota in May - no admin fee though!

May just try your options shortly!

Enjoy your new van!  What are you getting?

Cheers,

Sharon

Our Cheyenne is a fixed bed Dave and we love it.  The Dakota is also fixed bed - wouldn't have anything different anymore.  Great to walk back from the pub and just fall into it - not that I do it too often of course!!!!

Went with the Caravan Club for our insurance.  Bettered Comforts quote by £25 and no worries about insuraning the Dakota with a 'bog standard' tracker!!

Good on you sorting that out Sharon dont you just love these great insurance guys.

Cant wait for your new m/h  to arrive could do with a tidy read on the blog.

They are the pain of my year Del Boy.  CC were great though - £195 for insurance + £62 for Green Flag.  Not bad I thought.

Off for 2 nights next Friday (roll on) so not long to wait for blog updates!

Take Care,

Sharon
