I am looking at adding a second car to our household. I have spotted a Hyundai Kona 1.6 commercial van for a good price. It has two seats etc. which is no issue as we are a two-adult household with no kids.
This car is purely only for me for social domestic use and commuting to and from work. Can you please advise on whether it's possible to purchase a commercial vehicle and insure and tax it privately? I have no commercial need for this van, purely private use.
