Hi Guys,

I'm planning to turn my 80 series into a camper/overlander - I'm going to cut off the rear of the body and attach a habitation box to the chassis. I won't be modifying the original chassis, just building a sub frame for the box.
Please can someone help me with the following ?
1) do I need to notify the DVLA? - regarding the modification
2) any recommendations for vehicle insurance when modified.

Thank you.

Best wishes,
 
You'll need to notify the DVLA, but unlikely you'll get approval as a motor caravan - the DVLA are proving very difficult on this currently (long story - google it).

As Shane mentioned, Flux will insure you for most things (some people have had bad experience with them, but they will cover most mods).
 
Hi Shayne, MadManMart and Dave S

Thank you so much for your replies - I really appreciate your input.

To Madmanmart - yes, my 80 series will look like the ones in the link you shared.

Once again, Thanks guys,

Best wishes,
