Hi,
Hope I'm in the right forum, if not please point me somewhere else.
We're about to have twins and still want a couple of spare seats, so need a six seat vehicle.
I can't afford a Peugeot Expert Teepee ! So I'm looking at converting, or buying a converted van, possibly Transit.
I didn't realise how mind bending this was going to be, so I've lots of questions.
What are the different vehicle license classifications that I could use for a 3 seat to 6 seat converted van ?
If I buy a converted van, and the license already says '6 seats' will I still have to get an IVA in April 2012 ?
What do rear windows have to do with anything, it seems they have an effect ?
If I buy a 2005 van with a conversion using non-M1 classification seats will I have to get them replaced in 2012 ?
How would I know if it was a factory built 6 seater or a conversion (assuming that I didn't trust the seller) ?
Do I still need documentation for the insurer even though it was converted when I bought it ?
Which insurer can I phone to get clear answers and a sensible approach ?
Please help, I hope you can see where I'm at and give useful advice. I thought this was going to be a cheaper route to a 6 seater small van and it's starting to explode my head.
Thanks
Kevin
