Converting van to crewcab/minibus

Postby muz123 » Sat Jul 15, 2006 5:56 pm

Hi, if I were to put in a couple of side windows and another row of seats in my N reg Transit,were would I stand legally?
I mean would I have to re-register the vehicle and would the insurance groupings change?

Any info would be gratefully recieved.

you may want to tell your insurance company as the vehicle is then modified...
