Yes Voyager but if you have two windows on one side and one on the other, one side could look like a motorhome but tother side would only look like a van with windows with maybe some squerly surfer decals and not a motorhome? My point is that if the exterior has to look like a motorhome, then...

Apparently people have had two differing answers if that's to be believed from the DVLA themselves, so if the DVLA bods are getting it wrong, there is definitely a problem with the wording. Phil

As I suspected there is going to be a lot of debate over these written words as they are nebulous and transient in their application, and certainly not been thought through correctly, another case of folk who do not really understand the complexity of what they have control over. Phil

My wife and I still "live the Dream" Dave, even though I have to adere to the Nanny state. As they say you could die of natural causes any second anyway 😁👍. Phil

I feel on consideration your probably right but it is still a statement without means to an end. Phil

Yes Geoff that is not in question, but what is is that it states " Sufficient light to the habitation area: well rear windows does that. They do not say that side windows are to make it look like a motor caravan they state to " Allow sufficient light" . Phil P.s. I personally don't care "...

Dave I am aware that you and I lock horns on some of these subjects on occasions and on this one I fully admit that I am probably in the minority. But I feel that I must put in my feeble twopence worth. Seat belts are to me an anathema years ago, more than I care to think about, I used to ride...

Geoff this is my point, people are putting their own interpretation on what is required. My interpretation is that one side of the van should have at least two windows, " prove me wrong" I'm not being aggressive to you Geoff but you must surely see what I'm saying. Phil P.S. With this sort of...

Looks probable, that's what I'm going to suggest to my Son when he requests V5 change, I mean actually gluing another privacy glass window onto the side of his van £53 quid wasted but then if it saves him on yearly insurance, then " What the hell". His design for beds 'Bunks' for his kids and...

Oh I think I understand it, however their explanation is off kilter as they say it's to allow sufficient light into the accommodation "Not so that it looks like a motor caravan". Their reasoning does not stand up to their intentions as a Large Heki would do just the same, it should state two...

I agree Geoff other than the Graphics, my point on the windows is that the train of thought put into the document is a bit subjective, and the reasoning not been made precisely clear, if it's to make it look like a motor caravan or allow a descent amount of light in which a large Heki would...

Another thing there is no mention of Heki type rooflights, they say at least two windows to allow sufficient light into the habitation area, so it would suggest it's not to do with looking like a motor caravan, so if you have a large skylight but no windows does that discount it ???? It seems to...

That also if you read correctly means that you only have to have two windows on one side and nothing on the other ???? So one side looks like a motor home and the other side looks like a van with some commercial companies graphic colours ??? Phil

The only thing that I would as they say in parliament "Put in an amendment " 😡 is the graphics, to my mind that is a totally bourgeois use of power by the DVLA and really is unnecessary to determine the visual use of a vehicle. Phil.

Maybe in NI Trev but here in Wales I've just googled it there are only Two garages that sell it at pumps and one oil supply depot in Cardiff that might sell to the public🙄 Sorry 4 stations in the whole of Wales I was talking South and West Wales.

((actually them - got a pair); I have direct access to a Kerosene supply;)) As a matter of interest where can you by paraffin the only places I've seen it for sale in the last 30years is in model shops or specialist suppliers (Marine Chandler's) at a horrendous cost per 4.5ltr plastic can. I...

I know that Geoff 😄 I was just making a statement as to the fact we use a table, and I have to say that although it's easily dismantled it stays up permanently and acts as a book shelf, remote stand, card table, dining table and many other uses. 👍Phil

Enough said just finished our tea, chicken curry at Dare valley country park. 👍

I've been perusing a couple of posts on batteries and charging systems etc, there seems to be a concern about cab/starter batteries, which I can not really understand as to why folk would want to gang cab and liesure batteries together, I have a system where if absolutely needed I can switch...

As I suspected, as I said you have to bare in mind the amount of current draw of the starter motor, fine if starter battery is fully charged but if flat all the amperage will be drawn from the liesure battery and 80 amps will not be enough if the engine is cold. Cold crank on a Ducato will be...
