First establish which kind of Romahome you own
The name covers compact coachbuilt motorhomes on small Citroën bases as well as earlier demountable designs. Do not describe a Romahome only as a campervan if the registration and body type say otherwise.
Older vehicle records can be sparse
A registration search may show the Citroën base and little more. Use the model plate, V5C, purchase documents and photographs to identify the finished vehicle. If the habitation body can be removed, explain how it is used and stored.
Condition drives the value of surviving examples
There may be few direct comparisons for an older Romahome. Look for the same model and base vehicle, then allow for mileage, body condition, damp history and documented refurbishment. Keep receipts, but remember that repair cost and market value are not automatically the same.
Check what is covered while detached or stored
For a demountable body, ask expressly whether the habitation unit remains covered when it is not on the vehicle and where it may be kept. For any model, check the treatment of fixed equipment, awnings and personal possessions.
Limited mileage must be realistic
A low annual limit may suit a compact motorhome used for short breaks, but leave room for servicing, MOT trips and changes of plan. Tell the provider if it is also used for commuting or as everyday transport.
Age and breakdown cover
Breakdown schemes can set vehicle-age, size or weight limits. Check those separately from the insurance policy, especially before travelling abroad.
