Can I purchase a van as my first vehicle?

Hi, just wondering if you know whether I can purchase a van as my first vehicle. I’m currently doing lessons and hoping to do my test later in the year. Thanks

Answer

There’s nothing to prevent you from buying a van as your first vehicle, but you should look into the potential insurance costs if you intend to use the van for personal use. If you’re also only sitting your driving test this year, you may face higher insurance premiums given your lack of overall driving experience.
