Converted coach insurance?

Ok following on from another thread:

We sold our beloved converted Mercedes campervan to upgrade and we've now bought a full size coach to convert ourselves :rolleyes: .

Anyhoo, our insurance quote has gone from £180 odd (from the merc) to £490 TPO! :eek:

Would it be cheaper to insure our coach as a camper or as a private use only coach (not neading a psv)? Or, has anyone here been mad enough to buy a coach and got a reasonable deal on thier insurance?

Cheers all :beer:

    You need to insurer it as what ever it is at the moment. If it is still a coach then insure it as such, if you have converted it to a camper then you need to declare all the conversions you have made to it. Tying to "fix" the description to get you the lowest quote would invalidate your insurance
