insurance, where is best, and can I insure as a car?

[Richieintransit]

where is the best place to get transit insurance, and does it have to be commercial if using for private use just as a big car???, this is advice for a friend who wishes to buy a transit!

Phone big insurers, use comparison sites, and phone your small local high street insurers.
Write down all the numbers and prices, then battle them off against each other. It's well worth it for savings.

Options when insuring are about usage.
Are you using the vehicle for work related use? No
So just pleasure and commuting? Yes
