You will also need the following for your Campervan or Motorhome

GB sticker
Compulsory, and failure to comply could result in an on-the-spot fine.
Euro-plates - number plates that include the GB euro-symbol - have been legal since March 2001 and make display of a conventional sticker unnecessary within the EU.
In countries outside the EU a conventional sticker is required even if you have euro-plates, so it is always safer to display one.

Reflective jacket/waistcoat
When visiting Italy, Spain, Portugal, Austria and Croatia.
It is recommended that each vehicle carries at least two jackets/waistcoats in the passenger compartment - one for the driver and one for a passenger who may need to assist e.g. changing a wheel.
The Jacket/waistcoat must conform to EU Standard BS EN 471: 1994 Class 1 or 2.

Headlight Adjuster
If you're driving to the Continent then you must adjust the headlamp beam pattern to suit driving on the right so that the dipped beam doesn't dazzle oncoming drivers.
Never go without adjusting the headlamp pattern.
Remember to remove the converters as soon as you return to the UK.

First Aid Kit, Warning Triangle and Spare Bulb Set.
It is recommended that you also carry an unopened First Aid Kit, 2 Warning Triangles and a complete Bulb Set.

We carry all of these items in our extensive accessories shop. In fact we have lots of items in our shop to help you on your way.

When you purchase your Campervan or Motorhome the vehicle is put in your name making you the legal owner. This can be done on the day of collection and there is no charge when you change ownership. Please be aware that all vehicles in the UK require road tax. If your vehicle does not have road tax this can be purchased for you the price is £97.65 for 6 months (as of November 2006).

Buyback policy

Selling a Campervan can sometimes be a problem especially in the winter, so we offer you a guaranteed buy-back option, so you don't have the worry of selling your vehicle at the end of your trip. If you do sell it, well done, if not we will be waiting cash in hand as long as you return the vehicle in good condition, with a new 12 month MOT certificate.
The guaranteed buy-back means that you are totally free to do with the camper as you see fit after your trip. But if you want, we'll buy the camper back. ALWAYS!
