Default Camper Van Hire

Does anyone know of any companies that hire camper vans / motor homes in the UK which can be taken abroad.
We are trying to plan next years visit to Le Mans and a camper van is an option.
Thanks
Nik.

Can't remember any specific names but we were looking to hire one a couple of years ago and tour The UK / Europe, we just searched on Google and I think most of them were around £100 a day depending on size and quality of the camper's, also some places put you in touch with campervan owner's and you hire their's when they're not using them.

IME of these places that hire out motorhomes I would not mention LeMans - anything like that, LeMans, Stag weekends, general bloke stuff = red flag.

Good heads up as its needed for four blokes for a trip to LeMans 2013.
We are sensible though, aged 35-43

LOL We looked into a campervan to travel to Germany for the World Cup in 2006, as soon as that was mentioned it became pretty hard to get one unless you paid an absolute fortune.

We could always dress up as monks when we pick it up and tell them we are on some kind of religious mission across France.

Check out the forum on just campers.co.uk .. I used to have a 1973 tax exempt vw and sold it stupidly for £900! I know I was 19 and stupid. I wanted a car.... The buyer bit my hand off without even looking at it. I now know why

Place near me (junc 9 M1) called Just Go, my daughter works there part time
http://www.justgo.uk.com/

Run by a great Kiwi guy, he rents them out to anyone for festivals etc, loads of Irish guys have them for the Euro's at the moment. He has no problem hiring to all male groups.
