Can I convert a commercial back into a car?

Can I convert a commercial back into a car?

I would like to know if it's possible to fit the rear seats back into a commercial vehicle and register it again as a private. I'm looking to buy a Nissan Patrol, today registered as commercial, has only the two front seats. But I would like to add the original interior back again to use it as a private car. Any recommendation?

Our answer:

Hi Santiago,

That is in theory possible, but it would be a huge expense in terms of the conversion, then ensuring it's certified and paying required taxes, etc. We wouldn't recommend it given the decent supply of ready-made passenger cars already on the market.
