Hello

my insurance company wanted the V5 changed within 180 days from light goods vehicle to motor caravan.

 

i sent the v5 off with proof the vehicle was a factory made auto sleeper motorhome not a camper van etc or panel van

 

its come back as model motor caravan and tax class remains light goods vehicle LGV

 

i think it should be PLG private lights good.

 

ive seen many discussions including on here about PLG and private heavy goods vehicle yet the taxation classes doesn’t show PHLG as existing 

 

if if you click the link you will see no such category exists.

my concern is as LGV I’m restricted to lower speed limits where as PLG I’m normal limits

 has anyone had this issue before ?

    It is somewhat incongruous that over 3.5T it is £165 whilst my 3.5T motorhome is £255.
