    Business use insurer

    Quick query, once I find a van I will be using it as my daily, I utilise my work car allowance and I believe need to have insurance to cover business use. This involves travelling to construction sites around the locality. Are any of you using vans daily and covered for business use? If so who...

    10% saved thanks to this forum

    Hi, I have a brand new van arriving on Thursday. After shopping around for insurance, A-plan came up best for me - additional modifications at no cost was attractive as well. When I mentioned this forum, they told me they could apply a 10% discount, which saved me £35ish. Thank you to the...

    Frightening but it happens..

    Have you sold a vehicle and let a policy lapse because there’s only a few days left? I thought I’d use the forum to educate some about a circumstance that might cost a policy holder dear. Here we go.. 1. You own and insure a vehicle 2. With a week (ish) left on the policy you sell the...

    Aviva Zero Insurance

    AVOID !! Touted as a no frills, carbon neutral, online policy only. The Chief Advisor paid for and accepted a quote which was around 10% less than other companies and told them via email that she would be putting her Cherished Transfer on it in a few days once the documentation had come back...

    Hi, New to the forum and just embarked on our T6 Transformation journey. My first of many questions...We need to get insurance before we start the modifications at the moment is its a standard T6 T32 Kombi. Is it worth staying clear of the "high street" insurers as we'll adding on...

    Brentacre insurance

    Anyone Made A Claim? And if you did were you happy? Notwithstanding that making a claim is never a happy time. Doing my diligence before committing my money so am getting quotes for my conversion to camper. My standard van insurance won't touch it as soon as I start making changes:cautious...

    Which companies will insure my campervan in London?

    My policy through A-Plan finishes in March at the same time as I move house from the South Coast to London. Surprisingly, A-Plan tell me none of their companies will provide campervan insurance in any London postcodes. Anyone know whether I should have more luck with Brentacre/Adrian Flux etc?

    As per title, before I spend hours on the phone with many people can someone recommend anyone. *The van Is already insured with AXA but I want to add seats which they apparently do not allow.

    Help with how to value WIP conversion?

    Folks, any pointers for valuing the van for insurance purposes? We're up for renewal and things have changed significantly since it was bought as a panel van last year. Our insurer (Brentacre) will insure to an agreed value but we need to provide the value estimate which they either agree to...

    Shop Around for your insurance!

    I made the mistake of taking out a policy with Adrian Flux in the belief that I would get the very best deal from them because they “specialise” in camper van insurance. The policy was due to start effective from 1st Oct 2020 when the conversion will be complete. I foolishly didn’t even check...
