What's the difference between a campervan and a motorhome?

A campervan is built inside the body of a van, while a motorhome provides a much larger living area, normally built into an additional box-like structure on the back of a van.

Is campervan insurance cheaper than motorhome insurance?

Campervan insurance is often lower than van insurance because leisure vehicles are usually seen as lower risk vehicles to insure. They're not driven as much, often looked after better than other vehicles and don't do commercial activity.

How much is my motorhome worth?

The value of your motorhome will depend on a variety of factors, including how old it is, how many miles it's travelled, what condition it's in and how many features it has.

What licence do I need to drive a motorhome?

The type of licence you need will depend on the weight of the motorhome you choose to drive. Anything weighing less than 3,500 kg only needs you to hold a full UK driving licence, anything weighing up to 7,500kg will require a C1 licence, and vehicles heavier than that will require you to have a full Category C (HGV) licence.

Can I drive a campervan on a car licence?

So long as the campervan weighs less than 3,500 kg you can drive it on a full UK driving licence. Anything weighing heavier than that will require a special C1 or C-class driving licence.

What are class A, B and C Motorhomes?

Class A motorhomes are purpose-built leisure vehicles, usually large and luxurious with big windscreens. B-Class motorhomes are campervan conversions. While C-Class motorhomes are those that feature a storage or sleeping area above the driver's cabin.
