You are much better to buy a crew bus ready converted to take rear passengers than to buy a van and try to convert it yourself, the latter option can count as a major alteration when it comes to insurance and MOT, as you have effectively modified the safety zones in which passengers can travel and the van was safty tested for by the manufacturer by installing extra seats/belts into what was originally designed to be a cargo area.

These changes also have to be notified to the DVLA, the same way as when a van is converted into a campervan/motorhome. You will save yourself a lot of bother and money if you can find a van ready converted for your needs.
