Merry Christmas! In this festive episode of the Motorhome Matt Podcast, we’re diving under the bonnet of something every motorhome owner needs to understand: motorhome warranties.

Whether you’re buying a new or used motorhome, this episode gives you a rare look behind the scenes at what really happens when you make a warranty claim.

Matt gets exclusive access to Warranty Solutions Group, one of the UK’s leading providers, now moving into the motorhome and campervan market. You’ll hear directly from Dennis, a former Bentley claims expert, as he walks us through the end-to-end warranty process, including how a fault is reported, what gets checked, how decisions are made, and how fast claims are paid out. Spoiler: It’s not quite what you think.

Matt also chats with WSG’s Group Director, Steph Newbury, about building the UK’s most customer-focused motorhome warranty product. Whether you’re a buyer, a dealer, or a repairer, there’s something in this episode for you.

Plus, in our Q&A, we tackle your questions on:

• Using campsite WiFi vs 4G internet in your motorhome
• Streaming TV from your phone while touring
• Whether it’s worth upgrading to lithium leisure batteries

If you're searching for the best motorhome warranty, wondering about off-grid power, or just want straight-talking advice on keeping your camper protected, this is one to download and share.

Ever wondered what it takes to drive around the world in a motorhome? In this episode of the Motorhome Matt Podcast, Matt chats with Chris and Marianne from Tread the Globe, who left behind the 9-to-5 to explore the planet in their 20-year-old Fiat Ducato Adria Twin campervan. What began as a European road trip soon turned into an epic and inspiring global adventure across continents, weather extremes, and even a lockdown in a Turkish car park.

They share how they prepared their van for long-distance overlanding, how they handled complex travel logistics like motorhome insurance abroad, and how their YouTube channel accidentally turned into a global community, with real-world impact. Think: saving sea turtles, inspiring thousands, and proving you don't need the latest van to live the dream.

Matt and Keith also tackle your listener questions, including how to measure the true height of your motorhome, whether there are cleaner, greener ways to dispose of black and grey waste in van life, and a great story about affordable new-for-old motorhome insurance that might save you money.

Plus, get a glimpse at what Chris and Marianne have planned next, a multi-year overland trek in their new truck camper, Trevor. This one’s got inspiration, insight, and just enough chaos to remind you why we all love life on the road.
