If VX64 UOF ever appears for sale, I would politely suggest you turn it down.

It was Kelsey's old pool car MG6 that was put back on the road after being stuffed into the hawsers on the M25.

 

Before that, it was dire.

Green TK Bedford doesn't have those lovely original indicator/light units. Minus many points.

I have never driven one, but being a passenger in a TK used to give me neck ache, I wanted to look throught the bit of 'screen that wasn't there because it was roof.

I HAVE driven a TK, though not on the road.  The top rail of the screen does seem too low, but word is they're actually rather good to drive over distance.  They are, however, glacially slow.  The steering wheel is positively enormous, and more or less horizontal, so low-speed manoevering is quite pleasant.

i can agree with Eddy on this, as i found the TK really pleasant to drive.

 

they are slow, but with the side windows in the cab i found it easy to see out of for maneuvering and the like, whereas the Ford Cargo which was positively claustrophobic inside! 

 

the little leyland road runner was a nice steer too, though the seat, which was little more than a thin "padded" cushion was utter crap. it having side windows and a kerb window in the door made it easy to see out of as well. they are pretty slow too.

 

the cargo was quick too, much quicker than the TK or Roadrunner, however i found the brakes, been pneumatic didn't inspire much consequence. they were either on or off, and not progressive like the hydraulic brakes are on a car.

I've been 'not allowed' to buy this 1.6 white £300 mondy saloon for about a month (never ask permission etc etc). Might as well post it, hopefully someone else will put me out of my misery. I especially like that it looks like it is on a farm.

Fun* fact: the number plate on the red TK is only 39 numbers away from the one on my Renault 16 (LUT 165P), issued February 1976.
