Default Autoroute tolls

Hi everyone!
We are considering buying a VW minibus (or windowless van) to do most of the moving of our stuff to France ourselves. Do these vehicles attract a higher toll than ordinary private cars on the motorways? Does anyone know what the length or weight limit is for the lowest (private car) tolls? Thanks

You will be a class 2 a higher charge than cars etc class 1. The amount depends on the motorway.

Don't know if this helps, but the AA have a list of toll charges in France

also, if you use viamichelin as your route finder, it will give you toll charges
