commercial vehicle

Hi,

Can I insure a small van (Ford Fiesta) commercially and tax it privately?

Thanks.

Hi,

Read your article about commercial vehicles with interest. Just wondering how these crew cab pick-ups would compare to the Land Rover Discovery Commercial. As a daily driver that is. Are the refinement levels of the Discovery still far beyond these?

Thanks

Hello.

I have to buy a van (Opel Vivaro). My question is, can I use that van privately? Is it possible to change a commercial van to a private van? If yes, how, please?

If I covert a commercial vehicle, say a 2017 Volkswagen Transporter, to a camper van and get it certified etc, will I qualify for the lower rate of road tax?

Hello,

I have a 2005 Citroen Relay 2.2-litre van I converted to a campervan in the UK. I am looking into registering it here, as I have moved back permanently. I went through the UK DVLA and converted it officially, but they did not change the vehicle category. It is N1. I checked this with them when I got the log book back and they said it remains as is, a commerical vehicle.

Here I understand I need to go through the whole palaver again and get an engineer to sign off the conversion, so it is MI, passenger vehicle. If I am looking at this thing correctly, I would be paying €900+ tax? Onto insurance, any idea what I would be paying on this size vehicle? I have two years' no claims driving it in the UK. Do they accept UK no claims here? It's hard to find the information online as you need to enter your reg and as it doesn't have an Irish reg yet, I have met some dead ends. The van is not worth much and it looks like it will cost me a whole lot more to run it here than in the UK. I am trying to get an idea before I start spending money, if it's a good idea to keep it, leave it on the drive or see if I can take it back or sell it to a UK driver. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Do car-based vans need an NCT?

Hi, I'm looking to buy either a 2005 Peugeot Expert van for around €3,500 with 75,000 miles on the clock or a 2005 Ford Transit Connect T220 van with 120,000 miles for the sameish price. What would be the best one to buy and what problems would I have to look out for?

Thank you

What's a Volkswagen Transporter 4Motion?

Hi, I have a 2007 commercial Hyundai Santa Fe. Do you know if it is possible to retrofit rear passenger seats to this make and model?

Thank you

Where can I find a list of new SUV-class commercials currently being offered in the Irish market?
