Just joined so get ready for a barrage of questions.
Looking at a Vario bus tomorrow, looks a bargain! (dont they all). Will no doubt be after info on changing from PSV to Private HGV & all other aspects of converting to a Motorhome.

Welcome aboard, the last thing you want is PHGV. It was never approved as a goods vehicle.

Hmmm....Any suggestions?....Was thinking PHGV as it’s over 3.5t so not PLG....

PLG with a weight exemption, I’ve seen v5’s with it done. It’s now a class M2 passenger vehicle, so just change it to Class M1 with a weight exemption.

One owner from new & agenuine 40,000km (25,000 miles approx) on it. Full service history & 12months test.
Waiting to get V5 back then look at reclassification. That should be fun!..

Just been looking at the V5c & trying to glean some plain English answers from DVLA..Guess the wind must be blowing from the wrong direction as its all gobledegook to me. Looks like i need to fill in Part1 of the V5c but god alone knows what to put where. Only thing i can see that will be different is number of seats & Tax class. Current Tax class Disabled passenger vehicle.

Got it in the shed so hope to get it sorted by next summer. First thing is get all the stickers off. Just waiting for a hot day to see if that will help un-stick things.
