Motorcaravan Club of Ireland. It is our policy to help where we can.
The Motorcaravan Club of Ireland was formed in 1983 to act as a forum for those like-minded people who are interested in the pursuit of the Motorhome way of life. We are still here 42 years later. The Motorcaravan Club has been highly successful in promoting the use of the motor-caravans here in Ireland and has encouraged friendship amongst thousands of people of similar persuasion. It has also supported the tourist industry, and encouraged motor-caravan owners and hirer’s from other countries to visit Ireland. Forty years on and there is now a thriving motorhome industry in Ireland and a developing campervan conversion industry.
We did the hard ground work and we got the first insurance for Motorcaravans-campervans in Ireland where one insurance company started others followed, we got the vehicle registration tax down from 33.3 % to 13.33%. for Motorcaravans, we got the Road Tax down to the current figure of €102 Euro, yes, it was us that did all that.
