Will private insurance on a van cost me more?

Will private insurance on a van cost me more?

I have a 2010 Ford Transit Connect and have retired - so will be insuring as ‘private’ this year (due Nov). Will it cost more to insure as Private? Thanks

Our answer:

Hi Donal,

There are too many factors at play for us to know the answer to that for sure. However, we do know that many people struggle to find an insurer that will cover their commercial vehicle for private use, so I suggest you make enquiries sooner rather than later - and consider employing a good broker to help out.
