Dearest Funsters
Looking for some advice re insurance on a VW campervan. With pop top roof and professional conversion ( not Fred in his Shed).
Spoke to a few insurers and as I will be using the van for Social, Domestic and pleasure PLUS commuting to a single place of work 3 times a week, they have informed me that a normal (?) Car type insurance is not an option and I need a dedicated Motorhome policy, based mainly on the fact that my estimated annual mileage will be around 10 k a year, mixed with social use and camping.
In no way do I want to mislead the insurers, and want to be crystal in what my intended use will be.
Anyone got any recommendations or directions to try.
Have looked on some dedicated VW forums and some just seem to not disclose to insurers all that they perhaps should.
And I have not had insurance refused, but declined as some I tried don't cover the additional commuting element.
Thanks
