I am picking up my van on wednesday. super excited!!! i have come across an early stumbling block regarding insurance. It seems that i will have to take out temporary insurance of a commercial van then when the fittest is completed take out a new policy for a motorhome/campervan. did you have a similar issue? If so please advise on what you did. Also do you have any advice on who to use for european breakdown cover and insurance.<br />Many thanks and keep up the great work!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05963850495891748351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-616720438520031889.post-61940855295483271652017-03-12T23:20:53.281+00:002017-03-12T23:20:53.281+00:00Hi,
