Size of your van?

[YobboCat]

One of the things I've always wondered about is what size on average the vans are in which people go wilding. I have a 7m long 2.75m high van and to me that feels on the big size for being inconspicuous

So what do you all use when you're out and about?

I think you can insure as a day van Trev but I don't know the details.

Totally different in GB, Trev.

If it fits the criteria inside for motor caravan as on DVLA, even if they refuse to register as such because of exterior look, it can easily be insured as a motorhome. The DVLA state that in the letter regarding changing V5 . Our is van with windows but insured as motorhome

If any of you know the bit where the kite surfers park up at Tide Mills near the abondened village I can say the VW guys were amazed in the morning to see me parked up there. It took one of the sticky out marker lights out and I had to increase revs to push through the thick foliage on both sides but I got in

Yes, thanks, interested but need to sell this heap first before I start looking seriously.

Does it actually have an EHU connection and 13amp sockets or is it totally 12v only?

 

[Steve and Julie]

We just used a hookup lead with sockets like you use for camping and run it out the back doors if we needed 240 this will be included in the sale

Hey Hi ya,
So I’m a Fulltime Livaboard for well over a Decade now & through circumstance I’ve had to Downsize to a single rear axle 3.5t 7.5m long van that I’m currently converting….
I will be upgrading back to a more familiar 5t-9m Tag Axel soon
