Are you sure with your navara. As all the double cabs according to the Nissan brochure are all over 2040kg 

the lightest double cab is visa spec that comes in at 2070kg

out of interest, is it insured under a private or commercial insurance policy?

Afternoon all - glad its not me that is confused by this !!!

I am not an habitual speeder and if I had known I should have been doing under 50 I would had been under 50 set using cruse control and checked on sat nav  when I went past the mobile van !!!  I will In future I will even if i am successful in appealing this !

Mickeydredd - I wander if this has triggered this as its insured under a  Commercial vehicle policy ( direct line van ) as I do do a SMALL amount of claimable millage due to fixing computer hardware at a number of our server rooms so best way to ensure I was covered for this.

Fishingtex - Me too even not just on this forum but a few other i frequent

After asking a few fellow Van drivers it seems North yorks mobile cameras are somewhat renowned for this.

A further question(S) if anyone still reading this if i Appeal do I loose my right to 

a) speed awareness course ( never been on one ) last points were > 10 years ago 

b) taking the Three points rather than sitting infront of a judge 

my other comment and this is my personal take I drive a 6 seater van so I can take my family and mum and dad out the van ways a lot less than some 4 wheel drives and LESS than a lot of TESLa's it has the same brakes as one that can run around with 3.5 tones. it drives like a car it handles like a car it just looks like a VAN. it seems very draconian not to look at this again and level things up !

I asked as when I got my L200 I had to insure it under commercial insurance, but I too don't do any commercial work in it and got it due to having hawks/dogs/etc to cart around the country. 

I posted a guide on here a couple of months back which showed that only the L200 and another one or two pickups fell under the weight limit to classify as a car and therefore be subject to car speed limits.  I have been okay so far (4 years now) adhering to the car limits but I still will not be surprised if a ticket comes through post at some point.

Agri, why don't you ask HMRC for clarification ?
