From 2009 to 2013 we purchased insurance for our American RV for use in Europe from Thum Insurance. Choices were liability only at about $1000 a year to full comprehensive with a $2,500 deductible from about $550 a month for 3 months or so to $450 a month for 9 months. Thum wrote this insurance through a German firm with the carrier AIG. In February of 2015 AIG withdrew from the tourist market. Thum is trying to find other providers. Providers that I did find and the quotes I received were: Knop tours: 545E for 3 months liability only. Did not get comprehensive quote. Motorcycle express: $3,550. for 3 months comprehensive for 50,000E coverage. BW Campers: only liability available. 3 months: 620E 6 months: 1,005E We decided to purchase a cheap European camper from BW and get only liability. Insurance is less than for a US registered vehicle but registration is more. Hopefully, more companies will decide to enter the market and prices will come down. |
