Jimny van insurance was created by Teds Jimny

Hello, does anyone know whether a suzuki jimny could ever be classed as a 'van' for taxation purposes? I've have read that 'vans' can't have rear windows nor seats? But there are exceptions, could I unbolt the rear seats? Has anyone looked into van insurance for jimnys?

oh right, well my friend was looking at insurance for this short wheel base defender without rear windows and it would be Â£1000 on van insurance, or Â£10,000 as a car and hes 17 too, so i thought it may be similar for Jimnys.
