Destructive testing

Following on from the stickers thread @ "This is not an abandoned vehicle", said sticker was on the back of my Bedford Val wanna be VW when the slipptastic clutch finaly said NO MORE coming off the M25 having done about 5 miles at indicated 75MPH, actual 25MPH......

 

 

 

You'd never know that was brush painted eh? Bonus points for the 340 boot carpet reused spotters!

Is that really a Bedford?

[Richard]

I read it that way at first too, but it's a VW that wants to be a Bedford Val.It hasn't got enough front wheels to be a Bedford Val, and it doesn't have any Minis or gold in the back either.
