Technical and Legal paper work

[andyh2o2]

Hi, what a great site!!

We are condsiering converting a Double Decker (that we already own) into something like this for Entertaining, Private Parties etc etc... www.qualiticonversions.com/bus_conversions.htm

Does anyone know what category the vehicle has to be registered in? I think it is currently an Educational Vehicle and MOT exempt...

I know that paperwork and licenses are always the last on the list... but we want to get it right before we do the work!! (although it is already half done!!)

Also, does anyone know if you need special licenses for operating an entertaining bus like this?!!

Look forward to hearing frm you...

Cheers

Andy

PS: We intend to keep pretty good pics of the conversion, to help anyone elese!!

If it is used to carry passengers whilst moving it is a bus and requires a PCV licence and an operating licence.

Hi another technical question if any one can help please, how does the law stand as far as parking a double decker on our own land to work on with out living in it, and how do things change when you do start living in it.
many thanks in antisipation
