  • New Motorhomers..

    I’ve been listening to this podcast for some time (including the previous episodes I’d missed), as I researched which motorhome we wanted and have found the information provided to be accurate and so very helpful. We are now three months in to motorhoming and loving it. We feel confident about looking after the inside and outside of our outfit and have, thanks to this podcast, avoided most - but not all - rookie mistakes! The warranty info is beyond helpful and we are hoping Ripe will be able to... more

  • Informative pod, great way of putting across the points BUT, too many adverts inside the pod. Effectively shortens the pod to about 15 mins max!

    I'm sure it helps pay for it, but does spoil it for me.

  • Brilliant source of information

    What a fantastic show, balanced and informative and really has something for everyone from the seasoned motorhome owner to those looking to get in to owning one, I like the fact they put the information across in a lighthearted way but give you the key points to follow. If you own a motorhome or caravan, this is the show for you!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Motorhome Insurance Mistakes: Claims, Theft and What Owners Get Wrong
Q: How do you manage to offer a great product at a reasonable price?
Ripe emphasizes specialist teams, data-driven research, and customer feedback to tailor covers; not every customer is a fit, but aims to deliver value through risk-based pricing.
Motorhome Insurance Mistakes: Claims, Theft and What Owners Get Wrong
Q: If I remove an oven and replace it with an air fryer, does that affect coverage or warranty?
Insurance can cover a fitted cooking appliance if it remains a fixed part of the vehicle; removing an oven and keeping a fixed cooking setup may still be covered, but non-fixed appliances like a loose heater aren't.
Motorhome Insurance Mistakes: Claims, Theft and What Owners Get Wrong
Q: Can I tow a car in France or throughout Europe, and is it insured?
The policy covers towing a trailer, but not towing a motorised car; there is nuance on what counts as a trailer depending on the setup.
Swift Is Going Lithium in 2027. Is This the End of Lead-Acid Leisure Batteries?
Q: Will Swift's factory-fit lithium signal a broader market shift toward gas-free motorhomes?
Yes, it demonstrates that lithium is established, safe, and capable of displacing gas in at least some models, encouraging other manufacturers to follow and consumers to expect more off-grid possibilities.
Can You Make a Living Creating Motorhome and Van Life Content?
Q: Is it worth adding high-cost services like ceramic coatings at the point of purchase?
It depends on the vehicle and budget; a specialist can usually do a better job than dealers, and costs vary widely. Consider whether the service adds real value for you and if it can be postponed to later.
