Your insurance company will certainly need to know, as you have gas appliances etc fitted and the theory is the contents will be a higher value. You now need to insure it as a motorhome. Regarding the DVLA I would imagine they also need to know but someone wiser than I on the subject will no doubt comment. The main thing now is to enjoy it !

When I got my m/c I noticed the reg doc refers to it as a panel van. I checked with the first owner & he confirmed it was bought new as a motorcaravan having been converted by Autosleeper. When I sent the doc to DVLA for ownership change I told them it is & has always been a motorcaravan. They sent me the new doc back, still showing panel van. Obviously I have insured it as a motorcaravan.
