    Dvla And Changing From 9 To 5 Seater Mpv

    I had trouble getting insurance as it was classed as a 9 seater minibus. I took pictures of the van as a 5 seater. I got a video walk around and pictures of the front single seats and the middle 3rd row. I had a rug in the back and no seats. Would DVLA accept that or do I need to have the van...

    Camper Or Not?

    My T6 conversion will NOT have an awning. It will have an Austop pop-top, side windows (but not in tailgate), Cycle rack, colour coded side stripe and pop-top, RIB bed, gas stove, sink etc.. Does the pop-top and / or the absence of an awning mean it can only be registered as a 'van-with-windows'...

    Update V5 Online?

    I have added some rear seat/ bed. Is it possible to update this online on the DVLA website or does it have to be done by post? If by post I can see on the DVLA website there are 2 postcodes. Which one do I send it to? Thanks Change vehicle details on a V5C registration certificate (log book)

    Registering New Kombi before conversion

    Ordered a new Kombi through a conversion company. Is it standard practice for it be 'first' registered as a van (£55) on arrival then reregistered as a campervan on completion of the conversion? If first registered as a campervan from day one it costs about £1000 I think.

    Reclassification Speed Limits

    I sent off to have my Kombi reclassified as a camper today. Started off with the info and sample letter here: Converting a vehicle into a motorhome - GOV.UK and then added in some photos and receipts for the bits / work done. Hopefully it will be back soon and I can drive at car speeds again.
