No matter whether you use your caravan for your holidays, your main home or attach it to the back of your car in nice weather you should make sure that you have caravan insurance. It may be something that you have not thought of, especially if it spends most of the time on your front drive, but it is a necessity as we never know what is round the corner.

Trucks should be mistreated a little. Most city slickers don’t understand this approach, but it is a simple fact. Pickup trucks were meant to be carried off-road. The all metal body of most old trucks is made for the off-road needs for many tough applications. Because of this, you will find that pickup-trucks have stood the test of time.

In an age where the law seems to be growing more and more by the day it is necessary to learn it. This is helpful because it will allow you to make beneficial decisions before committing speeding offences, and gain motoring law advice. There are a lot of things to learn about it, but I will restrict it to only a few.

I read in Insurance Times recently that the financial Ombudsman had decreed that it would, in certain circumstances, back a policyholder against an insurer excluding claims for leaving keys in or near a car. I can’t help but wonder if the same would apply for a motor home. As an insurance broker, I almost feel that this story is not one to publicise.

If you are anything like me, your getting on a bit and you probably think you’ve seen the last of your summer music festivals with sweltering and uncomfortable tents as your only place to sleep. However, if you’re still into your music (I particularly like early 70’s bands like Soft Machine and Caravan) then you could always bring your motorhome (or someone else’s) along to a music festival and enjoy the music and the atmosphere without the rough sleep under canvas. You can listen to Caravan in your caravan!
