CF250 CB22 owner as of early last year

Hello all

Well I'm a fairly new owner of an old AS, it's a 35 years old Bedford but in lovely condition.  

How I got it, well, I lost my job over the Xmas period and thought to myself, why not take a flight to France and buy a van that's been parked up for a few years and is a non runner!! 

So that's exactly what I did   (to the amusement of the wife)

It's actually in a very good condition, it has full service history, yep 35 years of it; the book has been stamped on every page and then on back cover! Ziebart rust protection from new, I have folders that are thick with details.

It has the original carpets that have never been walked on as they've been covered with additional carpet from new, it's great.

I have had to do a few things to it, including new brakes and shock absorbers all round, and it's going to need a rear wheel bearing, but apart from that it's ready for some trips out.

Hi Matt and welcome to the forum from Leicestershire .

Welcome from N.E Wales         Great to see these old 'uns still going. Did you know about this van or simply come across it whilst looking?

Wonderful find, keep it original and take it to classic car/van shows and you''ll find it will be a nice hobby as well as a fun thing to go away in. Good luck. 

Hi Matt. Thats a really good looking van, if you get time how about posting a couple of more pics and maybe of the interior too.

Best of luck with your travels in it (her ! )

Hello and from Leicestershire, a good find, enjoy her for many years to come, they don`t make them like they use to.

Hiya, I'd new about it a few years back, but I didn't really have the time etc to go and see it, so when I finally did have the time off I went 

I'm not sure if this will work, worth a go

I've just noticed I have to wait for 7 days before posting pictures, that's why it's not working
