Too many people don’t bother to review the cost of their motorhome insurance when their existing cover comes up for renewal. Some people may give their renewal documentation a cursory glance and then just file the paperwork.

Well, if you weren’t aware, the cost of car insurance has increased by a huge amount for many people here in the UK over the last year or so. This is borne out by the Confused.com Car Insurance Price Index that is published every quarter. Whilst the report is in respect of car insurance it is quite likely that the cost of insuring a motorhome has also risen in the last 12 months or so.

You can find the report and read it on the above price comparison site’s website but we thought we would highlight some of the data for you below.

For instance, the average car insurance premium in the 4th quarter of last year was £995 per annum. That is only a few pounds short of £1,000 per annum. Did you know that 12 months prior to that the average amount paid for car insurance in the UK was £629 per annum? That is a difference of £366 per annum – a 58% increase.
