van passed mot = nice

van passed me mot with an advisory of lower front end passenger side flexi break pipe cracking (it has 2x) top one been done to new already

and it was a class 5 mot as a minibus... what that means no idea??? think a car is class 4?

but as a class 5 rather than a 4 i get cjeaper road tax of £165 for 12 months, my car is £220 or something?

crazy really as the van is 2 ton and a 2.5 engine which would impact the roads / envirioment more harshly than a car would.

Always nice when its passed. Odd about the tax. I guess they could be thinking that the damage and pollution for a bus is less per person than a car. Or it could be a concession that was lobbied for by the transport industry, being as most 16 seaters are run by businesses. Anyones guess really.

Good Result Paul

I would leave it as a class V

Just one thing - does your insurance know it's a class V vehicle?
I only ask as some insurers see that as commercial insurance rates and not simple car type insurance.
