And then I then tried Grove and Dean

.Aren't they the people who used to do the adverts in the cinema before the film started?

I also decided that my van didn't need servicing every year. My service man said the 2 yearly would be fine if no problems arose. Like Colin I can repair most things of needed. My renewal this year will be £92.49 with Cover 4.. It is only a 1990 Puck !

I think you may have been lucky or otherwise Andy as we've just been told by Cover 4 that they can no longer offer us cover. The reason why? Largely because we don't have the van CRiS registered (see seperate poll I posted earlier). They had tried an alternative company, Am Trust Europe, but they weren't interested because of the CRiS issue.
Because your Eriba is pre 1992 you can't CRiS register it because that's how far back the regsitration goes.

However it would be interesting to know who they have covered you with. When we were told we would have to go elsewhere we went to Compare the Market (Caravans) and they gave us a competative quote of < £130 including foreign travel. However, when we checked it out, it was with Am Trust which we though very strange as that company was supposed to have denied us earlier in the day. When I looked up Am Trust reviews on Trust Pilot they were dreadful.

We have now got a quote from Caravan Guard which costs a lot more but as long as they are kosher I don't mind. It's only money. There was no issue with CRiS membership as long as we could give them our Eriba VIN number

What I find annoying is that CRiS registration is of no use at all if some hell driver decides to shorten your van by a few feet. It's only useful if some cunning crook brakes through the locked gates, angle grinds the wheel clamp and hitch lock off, quietly winds up your corner steadies with a handle and not a drill to ensure perfect silence , hitches your van onto the back of a car/van/tow truck and has it away with ease.

By the way, Saga won't insure us, probably because of the age or CRiS although we know of Eriba owners on here who are with them without CRiS so it's probably the age. Isn't it annoying when companies don't give you a reason for refusal? Ripe Insurance won't ensure us because our Eriba is more than 15 years old.
Adrian Flux and K. Drewe also stopped us in mid-online quote to say that there was a technical issue that prevented them from taking further information.
