I'm hoping to get a bit of advice! My husband and I have just purchased a Ford Transit van and are going to convert it into a campervan. What I need to know is:

1. Do we need to change the vehicle details on the registration documents from van to campervan or motorhome? If so, roughly what are the costs involved going to be?

2. We are only going to have it sleep 2 (my husband and I), but we need it to seat an extra 2 passengers in the back for when our son and his friend come with us (they will be camping outside in a tent). I obviously want seat belts on these seats to keep them safe, but what I need to know is do the seats HAVE to be forward/backward facing or can the seating face inwards towards the middle of the van? i.e. seats running along the sides of the van. We have been told 2 different things!

Many thanks in advance for any advice you can give us - we are 'conversion virgins'!!! :o)
