Insure the excess when you hire a Motorhome.

When renting a motorhome or campervan the hirer, that's you, is responsible for damage to the hired vehicle up to a limit known as the Excess. The amount of damage that you are responsible for will depend on the motorhome or campervan, from whom you have hired, your age, driving experience etc. The damage you are responsible for will include but not limited to accidental damage, malicious damage, theft, damage caused by another vehicle, chipped windscreens, tyres, loss of keys etc.
