Title: We have a Bedford!!!!! And we are in L<3ve
Post by: ISNTONLINE on October 09, 2012, 05:25:30 PM: Last week we drove to Brisbane to buy the marvel that was the KCF Rally Sports' Bedford.
Diving it back to Melbourne was pure joy - there was never a doubt we would make the journey trouble free. We are all in LOVE!!!

Thanks Shane for your help in the process!

Hahaha YES! That was us, with our half made teardrop trailer from Ebay :) Did you see us grinning, or were we yelling at the kids?

Post by: Bedford Fever on October 10, 2012, 08:30:34 PM: Welcome to B.U.G.A
I too bought a van in Brisbane and drove it to Melbourne , so we have something in common.
Be it that your Beddy is a far superior specimen to mine.
Are you going to keep the graphics on , or do something else.

Enjoy your van ....Cheers Frank

PS . Did you see the Big Slurpee at Coffs Harbour?

We saw the big Banana - which was smaller than we were expecting with. Didn't see any slurpee though. The trip was so rushed.

We're going to get it vinyl wrapped with my business details on it. It will be a cream coloured with red & black highlights/trims, and may possibly have some pictures of my friends on there... if any of them agree to it :)

Like I said though... I need their permission to do that - they didn't sign up to being on a big roving advertisement :)
