Informative vlog as always, can I ask how long the crossing is please ?

[@motorhomingadventures]

Many thanks Tina, much approciated :) It is a 4 hour crossing in the daytime and a 5 hour crossing if you did the overnight service from Newhaven - perhaps the Captain has an hours kip on the way over :))

Enjoy your informative and entertaining videos, I have a question, have you seen the video/ news of the lady whose Hymer rolled over in Morocco only to be told that her fully comp ins was only applicable in roads, and the other news that in Europe Fully comp is only 3rd party. So you buy fully comp and expect the same in Europe. What is a made up road?

[@motorhomingadventures]

Many thanks for that Ianrea, much appreciated. If I intend to travel to a Non-EU country then my first conversation would be with my current insurer to see what level of cover they give. Your example of Morocco is a non-EU country so the Green Card cover that is often part of your current insurer may not work. The Green Card gives a minimum level of cover which, as you say, may not be fully comp cover!! That would potentially account for no cover if you roll your own vehicle as there is no third party apparently in this example :( Your own insurer would tell you what level of cover you have when abroad on 'Green Card' cover! So you're right that you need to understand what EU cover is provided by your insurer AND what non-EU cover is provided IF relevant to your travel plans, plus of course whether you need any other driving permits for Non-EU countries. You may well be able to purchase additional insurance for EU and non-EU travel to get 'fully comp' style cover but I've personally not done that. I guess a good breakdown service is also really important especially if you want your vehicle repatriated! I agree it is a bit of a minefield and I would say better to ask all the questions before you go so you can be well prepared for those unpleasant moments!!
