Hi everyone
I have a new motor home bought last year which is rated at 3650 KG.
I have just received an mot reminder. The van will be 1 year old in may, but i am not sure what category it need to be tested under. It appears to be classed as a Heavy Goods vehicle (HGV) so it will need to be tested as such, but i have been reading different post about Motor homes over 3500 KG being MOT'd the same as a car.
my past Motor home was a converted van which when i first attempt to PSV it they refused stating it was clearly a Motorhome so had to be MOT'd
Bit confused as i have also read it does not need tested until 4 years old and not 1 year old
Very little to go on from the NI Direct web site.
Anyone else have a similar weight van could advise me on this
Thanks in advance
Jack
