I have personal experience of this advice being given by DVSA PM sent

Just be careful if you intend using the back to carry other than goods you need to live in the vehicle , if you get stopped by DVSA being a HGV .

If it was a horsebox orig then floor , chassis corrosion a high prob . They are good(reliable) engine , but relatively noisy and slow . If horsebox unlikely to be coach diff , as horseboxes generally travel slowly ! so speed not a big deal . Not a long distance tourer , but place to place...

From my experience on Canters in Australia they were a bit of a hard ride on the front , certainly the 4wd versions were . Engine wise they were pretty reliable. i tried to use a Rosa as a school bus in Western Australia , as it out performed the Toyota Coaster in all areas , getting it...
