I've imported an old Hymer from Germany which has a manufacturer quoted unladen weight of 3200 and a GVW of 4600kgs. The true unladen weight when taking into account things like an awning, some fuel and water etc is about 3500. This happens to be the cut off weight for whether a vehicle is classed as a PLG or a PHGV.
I'm just about to have it registered and want to make sure it's properly classified . If it falls into the cheaper (heavier) tax band great but I'm not trying to finesse a it one way or the other.
Does anybody know what the official DLVA definition is for their weight quoted for road tax purposes?
