ferry fares! (1 Viewer)

[shrly]

Hello, we have a Vivaro van conversion. Just been looking at ferry fares and noticed there's a massive difference in price for the same crossings if I put our vehicle in as a van rather than a motorhome.
Has anyone tried this? Is there a reason for the difference that I'm not aware of?

What's the worst that can happen? They wag their finger and ask you to pay the difference?

I think you need to select "Campervan".

With our previous van, also a Vivaro, we always went as a campervan or MoHo, which I thought was cheaper than a van anyway. Not sure now

Any van to IOM is almost twice the price for a M/H. Vans are deemed as commercial even private ones

There might be a market for magnetic, window 'lookalikes' to be stuck on the side of the van. Then, who would know

I believe its something to do with VAT,
