Hi guys, how much will a Van cost me per year all Van related bills included?

Have you spoken to the council housing team yet, or Shelter?Insuring a van as an inexperienced driver and no fixed address is going to cost a fortune.
Also virtually no vans big enough for an adult to lay flat in will fit within a standard UK parking space, or potentially be low enough to get under car park barriers.
There are so many reasons this is a bad idea.1 -
The same question again? OP I know you are struggling but please read the replies on the other threads and stop just asking the same question over and over again.You also need to consider the point raised several times on other threads that with no fixed abode insurance might not even be possible financially.I’ll merge this again with all the other threads .I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Park it up where exactly? if I was insuring on the OP‘s behalf, I wouldn’t want to be potentially committing insurance fraud by giving a false address knowing that the van was going to be on the move.Baldytyke88 said:
£1,000 - get someone else to insure it and just park it up.Margret1994 said:So jus rough figure in our head im an inexperienced driver 40 but no points i will be a bigger van but able o fit in a normal parking space.
Im no looking for accuracy rather a ball park
All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

If we’re talking about fraud, why stop at faking the insurance details? It’s far cheaper to clone the number plates from someone else's van. There’s no reason to believe the op wants to do anything shady, though.elsien said:

No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

Can I just reiterate my earlier comments. OP does not respond to any questions or helpful responses , virtually everything has already been covered and until the OP feels able to read and respond to the various concerns raised I can't see how else we can help.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
