    Insurance on non registered van

    Hi all - as most of us know, the dvla won’t change vehicle status from panel van to camper / motorhome. So specialist insurers won’t insure (Carole Nash). So do most people just have ordinary van insurance with non business use? I’m with a plan but my policy does state it’s a conversion….

    Van conversion - insurance implications?

    I am looking at a van conversion from CCK campers. They do their own pop top, so obviously not TUV approved. I’m happy with the design and materials, and I understand it won’t cause MoT issues. Will I have any problems with insurance? (Currently with brentacre as modified van) Thanks.
