The Itineo SLB 700 stands out from the crowd for one very clear reason: it is one of the few A-class motorhomes designed specifically with families in mind. Built on a Fiat Ducato chassis with a wide-bodied design and a full coachbuilt front, it offers a clever layout that keeps both adults and kids happy - even on rainy days when no one can go outside.
From bunk beds at the rear to a central living space and a drop-down bed up front, this motorhome is as much a mobile home as it is a touring vehicle. But with all that space, comfort and onboard kit comes one important question; how do you insure it properly?
The SLB 700 is not just long; it is smart. The bunk beds come with their own little play area, separated by a sliding door, whilst adults get a transverse double bed above the cab. Add in a central kitchen, full washroom, decent garage space and a sociable dinette, and you have something that genuinely works for travelling families.
But more living space means more things that can go wrong. More electronics, more plumbing, more fittings - and let’s be honest, more opportunity for the occasional accident involving juice cartons or muddy boots.
Just imagine: parked up in a lovely French aire. The kids have been playing outside, shoes off, doors wide open. Suddenly, the wind picks up. Slam; one of the rear doors closes on a half-open storage drawer. The drawer front is cracked, and in the process, a glass panel inside the cupboard shatters. To top it off, someone knocks a tablet off the table and onto the floor, where it bounces and takes a chip out of the vinyl.
Nothing catastrophic. But enough damage to need attention. Will your insurance cover the internal fittings? The fixtures? The cost of repairs whilst abroad?
When looking for insurance for the SLB 700, it is worth going beyond basic motorhome cover. Look out for:
Do you tour every school holiday or stick to summer? Keep your motorhome at home or in storage? Travel with pets, bikes, or a mountain of toys? Your insurance should reflect your real-world use; not just what the van looks like on paper.
The Itineo SLB 700 is a practical, well-designed motorhome for families who want space, comfort and flexibility. Get a quote through this website and make sure your insurance policy gives you a sense of being covered, wherever your family takes you.
Because travelling with children is an adventure in itself; you might as well be prepared for the unexpected.
