Getting a van?

We have been bitten by the VW van bug! Here's the one we've got our eyes on... We've seen it now twice, and although it is at the top of our budget, we are very interested.

It's a Volkswagen Transporter 1986, with all bits inside working, and a pop up top which makes it possible to stand inside too! And we love it, well, we love HIM as we've decided to call the van Fritz.

But now, in addition of having to save our pennies to purchase Fritz, we're also having problems in getting an affordable insurance. Actually, getting an insurance at all! As I've lived in the UK for less than 3 years most companies won't insure us! And as I've never owned a car/van before, the insurances that we could get are hugely expensive... Argh!

Help anyone? Who knows where we can get an insurance from...?!!
