Janus, I am the wife  So where do I put the L plates, on the car or the van?
Grampian, I don't really have the option of getting a smaller car, with 3 kids and a boot full of dogs.  I know we will have to upgrade the van too in a year or so as the kids grow, it's just that we picked up the van, awning, a couple of aquarolls, waste, alko hitch etc for £700, so was affordable for us to snap up.  It was through a friend who has had the van for years and has maintained it fantastically.
Looking forward to being a menace, already planning to go down to Cornwall next August, and we camp in the back garden of Chatsworth house every year for the country fair. Hope we can get a few local weekend breaks in too

Hi Skodabob, thanks, I had a little woop for joy myself when I was looking into it last week. But then as you read in to all the stuff, I do actually need to take my test. It's all so very confusing. With the, to motorway or not to motorway, kerb weights, maximum allowed weights, towing percentages etc etc part of me is wondering whether to just carry on tenting.
But hey, no pain no gain. And we got the van at such a steal, the price of a years storage, towbar, insurance and possibly even the cost of the test could be offset against a van of similar age, spec and accessories. I think that's the way I've got to look at it. 
To everyone else, thank you for all the input, it's better to be forewarned about these things. I'm sure there are so many people who know nothing of all the regs and are driving round illegally. I was certainly not told what I could and couldn't drive when I passed my test. My parents had no idea about all this and many people I speak to don't either. All quite scary really
