Greetings fellow road warriors.
View attachment Nu Venture.webp
I have just bought a 'Minibago'. Not the worlds most expensive or large motorhome to say the least. We looked at a Morrello but it was just a little too large for the supermarket run, as well as the less important fact of being at 350,000 €, 346,000 € outside our budget.
Above is the beast. A 1992 Nu Venture, one of the first production models from the Wigan based company, who by the way are a very polite and friendly bunch of people.
The main interest in the new 'sports model' with its powerful 58bhp engine that we have is the fuel economy as when we go on holiday, we go a looooooonnnngggggg way. Fuel savings are important.
Can any kind forum member suggest a company which will allow the vehicle to be kept at our home here in France and also provide breakdown cover?
To register the vehicle here in France will be very difficult due to its age so for the time being it will stay on British plates.
I need insurance cover but would very much like breakdown as well.
Any advice very gratefully received.
May all the speed cameras be out of film, (and for the 'Dark Lord' Donald Trump to go to prison for his crimes).

Have you a U.K. address that the van could be registered at? That will help a lot then perhaps a phone call to Comfort ins.

Well once again this excellent site has done its job. Many thanks for your suggestion and I am delighted to tell you that you are wrong. They were excellent value.
365 day breakdown for my very old vehicle throughout the EU and Britain was only £190 and the whole package including that and fully comp insurance was just over £1,000.
I am delighted. The service was polite and efficient.
Other insurers wanted well over £1,500 with no breakdown cover.
Thanks to everybody for their suggestions.
