Is the UK motorhome scene ready for a new kind of club? This week, Matt meets James Forrester, Managing Director of The Van Club—a fast-growing, no-nonsense community for motorhome and campervan owners who want more from their weekends away. No outdated rules, no club politics, just live music, great company, and trips that take you well off the beaten track.
Matt and Keith also bring the latest from the NEC Motorhome & Caravan Show, including a surprising withdrawal from one of the industry’s longest-established names.
Plus, Matt shares a personal health update ahead of major surgery, though he’s still determined to be at the show.
In the Q&A, it’s a mix of praise and puzzlers: one listener reveals a rare good-news story about a dealer that actually came through, while others ask about quirky insurance rules around factory-fitted immobilisers and what really changes when you uprate your motorhome’s weight.
Hit play to find out what’s changing in the motorhome world, and why it could be time to join a new kind of club.
