Hi guys
Need some help to understand UK termonolgy and licence regs.
The Hymer we are looking at buying is on a Fiat AL-KO chassis.It is said to have a mass in running order of aprox. 2980 kg. I assumes this means total on road weight unloaded. Max permissable weight loaded is 3500kg/3850. So do I take it that the maximum weight we can add including passengers is 520/870 kgs.
The dealer recommends we take the chassis option of 4250kg , can this be driven on a standard car licence? Would this be on a standard MOT ?
The dealer mentions that if we order a Tramp CL 678 on a 3500 chassis instead of the standard 4250 chassis it has to be down plated from 4250kg. what does he mean by that.
I am communicating with him by email during his office hours , tried to catch him on phone but missed him.
Can anyone shead any light on my queries?
