New short-term cover aims to simplify motorhome borrowing

A new temporary motorhome insurance product has launched in the UK, offering flexible cover for drivers borrowing a motorhome or campervan for short periods. Insurance provider GoShorty has expanded its range of temporary vehicle insurance products with the introduction of motorhome cover available from one to 28 days. The policy is designed to allow borrowers to take out their own standalone insurance, with claims handled separately from the owner's policy to protect their No Claims Discount. The move comes as interest in staycations, road trips and peer-to-peer vehicle sharing continues to grow.
