Good on you mate you should claim for loss of vehicle being off road at least the reports back you up
Hello John, dodgy paint has not put it off the road but we not been happy with the paint since delivery !!! but when they do have it back they will have it for at least a month ,but hopefully we can have a vehicle in return ! but i will be claiming as much as i can .

Since this happened in Germany, do I detect a touch of schadenfreude?

Looking a bit sorry
Its a bit like listening at a séance and wondering that the person alleged to be dead is referring to you, but I’ve looked and re-looked at that photo and cannot help suspect it might be one of ours when it was new.
We had quite a few with that cab mould (About W & X reg.) and three in particular had been bought personally (When new) cash by my father and leased to W. H. Williams (Haulage) Ltd on a monthly basis and he personally sold them to a dealer who specialised in selling Luton & Pantechnicons based in Slough Late 1985 and I cannot help think it might be one of those. The size seems about right for our specifications and the proof would be is there a Radcliffe Tail lift fitted? looking at the back of that van, it might just be shadow, but I think it might have. The last of this model we bought had the roof sloped down a bit Like the 2 on this photo had, but most did not.

Lovely article Dean…that would have been one of the first batch of KMs for Pickfords…thanks for posting.rMark, They must have operated one of the largest fleets of Bedford’s in the UK back in the 70’s’.
Cant remember seeing that many KM’s did they operate many ? It was always the TK and then TL.
Something a bit different.Removals in South Africa. 1963.
Click on pages twice.
Hi Dean,
Yes they had a large fleet of KMs across the country from the mid 70s to the very early 80s.
They also ran the same standard KM vans alongside the Pickfords name with the companies they took over during those times…the limes of Griff Fender Swansea and Stringfellows Wigan.
Regards Mark
