    Hi Major Gruber,thanks for the advice. I am an old git so i have had my licence for ever…………What would i call my minibus once it has been finished? would it just become a large Car/MPV? i cant call it a camper because i dont intend putting any beds in it at all, so i am not sure what the DVLA will make of it?? also if it has a Tacho fitted can i just remove this?…. Bob.

    If you’re not fitting beds
    If you’re not fitting beds then you’ll have to leave it as a “van”. Beds are a requiremnt for re registering as a camper. You should be able to reclassify it as a “van with windows” but this will only affect the MoT. My insurance company were happy to insure my minibus as a van when i explained that there were only 8 seats in it. For resale value, it might be better to leave it registered as a minibus, because someone might want to convert it back after you sell it.

    PS, making a “dayvan” is a great idea, your kids will love it and when you sell it on, you’ll have plenty of interest from fishermen and surfers, who basically only need a mobile beach hut 😉
