Closed petition Ask DVLA and DfT to publish up to date motor caravan V5 guidance.

Closed on 6 November 2019

Since early May 2019 DVLA have been rejecting V5 reclassification requests for vehicles being converted to motor caravans. The majority of these rejections have met the published guidance - https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/registering-a-diy-caravan/converting-a-vehicle-into-a-motorhome

DVLA are rejecting reclassification requests because the vehicle "does not look like a motor caravan" but are unable to give any indicators or criteria as to what might satisfy their (new and unpublished) policy. Drivers now violate legal advice given by DVLA on the above mentioned website. We ask that DVLA continue to reclassify according to current advice, or update their specifications and criteria accordingly. It is absurd that national policy has changed, but advice available has not.
