this time about chunnel pricing,
how does everybody price their tickets?, is it appropriate to just use the website, or do I have to get a coach price,
just for extra info, mines 36 foot and 12 foot tall.
I cant believe that the price for the end of august is only just over 100 pounds.
thanks anyway

The tunnel is great in that the length of your motorhome is irrelevant. The height is the governor of the price. As mentioned, the cheapest motorhome crossing is £61.
I do not know if you have a fixed LPG tank on the RV.....there are some tunnel rules regarding this.
Here is a bit I have cut and pasted from the Eurotunnel website re LPG.
LPG
Vehicles fitted with LPG containers to power domestic services e.g. cooking, refrigeration, heating and water heaters are accepted as long as the containers are switched off, weigh no more than 47kg and are not more than 80% full. If your vehicle is fitted with such a container, you must declare this at Check-In.
LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) and dual powered vehicles (i.e. vehicles fitted with an LPG tank as an alternative fuel) cannot be accepted for transport by Eurotunnel.
You may find that you have to go on the ferry due to this, so check the size of your tanks etc.

Also many thanks, I've got the lpg tank, but its domestic. ( I did consider having it converted for the genny to run lpg but it was too complicated, which, it may turn out was handy,).
I'm still stunned by the cheapness of it. My house is 3 miles from Newhaven Port, and yet I travel the 2 hours to Dover for the crossing, beause the local ferry to Dieppe quoted me £500.00 plus return.
Many thanks both.

Even though it may be a domestic lpg tank for cooking etc, it is still - as far as I know - governed by the weight/campacity restriction of the tank.
Double check it to make sure.

I'll leave it empty and fill it up in France, its alot easier, dont quite know how they would weigh it, its a big built in thing, with...with...stuff sprouting out of it.
You can tell I'm and expert cant you, the terminology, the obvious know how.

Tunnel seems to be only 2 prices - under & over 1.85m.
Cheapest price for the M/h we have found is £61 each way. Less Tesco vouchers of course!
Regards
The cheapest is £27 each way on a day/overnight, next is £44 for short stay, five days max and as quoted £61 long stay.
Oddly enough if I were to book my Mercedes Sprinter motorhome as a Mercedes Sprinter Luton van with the same dimensions, the lowest long stay goes down from £61 to £49!
How wide is your RV bandaid?
