If you convert it to day van spec it'd be in the region of £200, my old X reg T4 was day van spec agreed value of 7.5k was £180 with no limits on mileage. My full camper T5.1 is £280 and is worth considerably more. all done through Adrian flux.
when I bought both vans i was getting ridiculous quotes, near a £1000.... however Adrian flux came to the rescue with a policy strictly for vans in conversion. Definitely worth giving them a ring and asking what the basic requirements are. I would also ask what is required if changing to MPV status.
(this may or may not help given that with the number of passengers going up so could the cost in the event of a claim)
Thing is by leaving it empty, any insurer will just turn round and say that you have the ability to load lug at any time for commercial use.

Popped out to the queen square meet this morning, met an orange prefect there that had been turned into a van version. Very similar to this thing in looks but very different inside . Later on took it up the m5 to see the rents and nearly ran out of fuel going up the hill after avonmouth, I thought it might be low but that was really close, once back on the level we had just enough to get to Asda. A close call indeed

New owner picked her up at 12.00 today, got what I asked for so that's good enough. Can concentrate on the magnum now, should have its new engine here at the weekend.

Go online to the social club and accept it there, however I'm guessing you haven't yet created a rock star account.

Here's a quick walk round video. I'm not saying anything because although I don't have a bristolian accent I don't sound like me startup

Many years ago when I used to do a paper round, there used to be one of these parked on a drive of one of my houses.
Always had a soft spot for these but never got around to getting one. Yours looks stunning, keep us posted on your exploits. Love it!.

Cheers niterida@jxke its got a 5.7 Chevy and 350 auto box. Rather loud Sidepipes, the bonnet is removable, A 30 litre fuel cell and a nasty spike at the rear for stabbing yourself when underneath it. I'll do a proper walk round vid so you can see what I mean, that little design touch has to go.

I clearly need help, I came home with this today. This wasn't planned, I'm supposed to be focusing on my magnum. It's loud, has poor visibility and is totally ridiculous, yet i love it. I'll do an in car video tomorrow.
