Probably that she's overly trusting and completely innumerate.
Have a read around this forum to get a feel for what you want.
Write it down.
Then have another read around the forum on those more specific things.
One oft repeated recommendation is that you hire a van for a weekend camping trip to help you decide what is important.

Welcome.
Beg, borrow or steal (or just hire) one. Then you will know if it's right for you and the missus, and may help you decide what / which / etc. etc.
Ditto, hire one. We did this before converting and gave us a good idea of what we needed.
I would say too, when you hire it, use it as you wish to use it. If you hire it and pitch up for 2 weeks you won’t experience the same as if you do the NC500 or something touring round

Just to say that we didn’t hire one first and tbh we don’t think that it would have told us anything extra. It may even have been misleading because we would have been basing our thinking around someone else’s (the hire company’s) needs.

Thought you were making an offer to the OP there.
Have a Search, there is an enormous discussion already on the “Motor Caravan“ classification.
In summary, doesn't matter these days.
Premium may go up due to the value of the van increasing because of the conversion.
No. The Insurance companies are aware of the DVLA's stance.
Read this and all will become clear.
