STUNO Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 Hmm no mention if the plates are still live though or if the RUC are somewhere near paid upto the current miles, cheap camper holiday though, we paid much more to hire a poxy hi-ace hitop for a month last time. Yes, all is well. Registration on hold = sorn. Road tax = Diesel tax and should be paid up to the current Km's or more when sold, and no MOT which = WOF (warrant of fitness) because of repairs needed. So patch up the rust which probably is minor, pass a wof then register it and off you go ! And you don't even need to insure it because you will never need any will you !The fly in the ointment is that you must have a wof to be able to register it. That leads to many people driving without either.

MorrisItalSLX Posted January 27, 2018 Posted January 27, 2018 SERIOUSLY????? Oh wow, that's brilliant! And in such an Autoshite way too. NB verdict delivered after watching only a couple of minutes, including the opening credits. I'm going to have to watch more later when I have more time. Let me know if you find the chase compilation! Fucking brilliant, I'm never going to forget that.I’m glad you are enjoying it. Unfortunately, the bastards at YouTube have taken down the compilation video on copyright infringement. Fair enough I suppose. You can buy the complete collection on DVD and it comes with Bargearse! http://shop.eatonfilms.co.uk/ourshop/prod_4243830-Bluey-The-Complete-Collection.html eddyramrod 1

dome Posted January 27, 2018 Posted January 27, 2018 This thread made me go and watch Shaker Run for some New Zealand Bedford CF action. Some top shite in this film... http://www.imcdb.org/movie.php?id=90006 A word of warning, it doesn't end well for the CFs...
MorrisItalSLX Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 BOOM Only issue, it is an Aussie. BUT LOOK, the original colour, it an Ex - Telecom Australia van!So if you want it Eddy, you’d better beat me to it! https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Bedford-CF-van/282824385649?hash=item41d9a5a471:g:G88AAOSwDVtabBV2 danthecapriman, eddyramrod, somewhatfoolish and 1 other 4
eddyramrod Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Lush! Proper gears too! But, too much of a road trip for me I'm afraid. You go for it! I'll enjoy it vicariously
Cavcraft Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 There's a CF ice cream van on 'barn finds' on Facebook. Think it's in Devon and doesn't have an engine or gearbox, but surely you could C20XE it just for a laugh?
eddyramrod Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Thanks Billy, but, er, how do I drive it back from Devon with no engine? And in any case: "ice cream" is a no-no.
eddyramrod Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 PTCP pricing at work there, sadly. No offers, indeed. Yeah mate, that's exactly what you'll get too.
hauserplenty Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 Yeah, that's a foul anchor all right... Chevrolet make vans too, I reckon *cough* eddyramrod 1

Tadhg Tiogar Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 It increasingly looks like the market for swapping a big Rover for a Bedford CF is tiny. They_all_do_that_sir, barrett and mat_the_cat 3
eddyramrod Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 It increasingly looks like the market for swapping a big Rover for a Bedford CF is tiny.It was always a long shot, but if you don't ask....
Tadhg Tiogar Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 It was always a long shot, but if you don't ask....If it's any consolation, it took me the best part of three years to find a CX with my name on, and I didn't have a car to swap either! There were many points where I thought it just wasn't going to happen - the few that came up were either too expensive or had too many question marks hanging around them. At one point there were more Safaris/Familiales than saloons on the market. It was like a feckin' needle in a haystack. eddyramrod 1

eddyramrod Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 44kW/60Hp: is because of the Satanpower engine. Shame about that, it's quite a handsome thing otherwise.
mat_the_cat Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 Not to curse it - but I'm currently awaiting a CF recovery being welded in the cab area as a hauler....... they do exist for not too* much folding Eddy. The one I'm chasing is running a slightly warmed over Frontera disiesel - that will change in time though.I love these vans - This is bloody expensive though!CF_20K.JPG while this is ready for the zombie apocalypse - and looks terrible for it!CF_horror.JPG /\ Can I just like the first half of this post? I know it's not the one for eddyramrod, but I do like the look of this 4x4 CF (thanks to ultrawomble)https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/bedford-cf-4x4-LWB-minibus-one-owner-Barn-find-Project/253405474879 Junkman, danthecapriman and eddyramrod 3

Felly Magic Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 I could just see Eddy in a Morrison full cowl CF converted to a mobile pie wagon (gets tin hat & hides) eddyramrod 1

eddyramrod Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Pretty safe to assume that anything turning up on R&S has had way too much money spent on it to be a viable swop. Never mind eh! In other news, I spotted the GAS van again on ebay last night. It's now listed with a starting price a grand above where it was before!
flat4alfa Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Anything on R&S has had way too much pudding rubbed on it to make it viable. But all those photos excite The swap idea will never work, but the sell and use the proceeds will There has been quite a lot of positive chat about that LWB gas van, and not just on here. Perhaps the re-pricing is to keep away the squads of muppets. Owner sounds a tad muppet himself, likely shilling it into a relist. You could just make an offer

eddyramrod Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 Now THAT, despite being too young and a camper, is seriously tempting! I wonder if I should message him?
DVee8 Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 I'm sure we have had this one,but hay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1976-Bedford-CF280-5-berth-motorhome/192420811474?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D49131%26meid%3D3afedfa4b4c944d3a4b539050e3fb057%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D6%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D142671340633%26itm%3D192420811474&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 JeeExEll and eddyramrod 2
eddyramrod Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 MoT history on the beige looks reassuring...
