We have recently become the owners of a pre-owned 2010 Vantage Cub PVC on the Fiat MWB Chassis.
The V5 shows the Body Type as a Panel Van. All our previous Motorhomes have had the Body Type as Motor Caravan on the V5. I am debating whether I need to get the Body Type changed on the V5. All the info I can see relates to changes I have made to the Van (in this case non).
The only issues I have had so far is a) Saga wouldnt carry on insuring me with the new purchase as they dont have the Vanatage Cub in their drop down menu's so can only go on the panel van and wanted to know loads of info which I dont have. b) Dartford Crossing want to charge me an extra pound per crossing (I rarely use it and when I do a pound each way isnt that much)
Also the Speed Limits are lower but I am used to that as the Bessacarr we previously owned was 4250kg
So.......do I really need to get the V5 changed (neither of the previous owners saw the need) and am I breaking the Law if I leave it as it is?
I have asked Vantage for details of the conversion - approval numbers etc this week.
