Motorhome Preparation – The Money Bit

As the motorhome trip preparation continues, thought you might be interested in the costs so far:

£10,495 – Dave the van from eBay
£717 – Full timer insurance from Chaucer (via Insurance Choice)
£215 – Road Tax
£95 – ADAC (breakdown cover) from their website
£764 – Full Service and MOT (a few bits underneath have needed replacing) from Essex Street Garage
£10 – Habitation check from Dave Benniston at Cara Service

£414 – Camping cheques (29 days pre-paid on campsites) from their website
£300 – Solar panel, controller & fixings from eBay
£135 – Bike Rack from eBay
£27 – LED lights and controller from eBay
£35 – Triple core hosepipe from shrubs.co.uk
£35 – Thermal/blackout curtain lining from eBay
£5 – GB sticker and headlamp deflectors from eBay
£2 – LPG sticker from eBay

My Brother Murray, wife Adele and their sons Hamish and Callum have bought us a gas BBQ which will plug straight into our LPG tank.

And our latest purchase (with my birthday money)

£40 – 12v Slow Cooker from Roadpro.co.uk (for tasty food cooked on the move!)

That’s about it for now, pretty much everything else will come from Harvey.

      Sure do, but got them all from previous van (except the spare bulbs which came with Dave). Even Charlie has a high vis jacket! Can’t believe it’s less than a month til we go.
