Only Fools and Horses

I’m an Only Fools And Horses Fan and I’m being forced to sell my iconic van

A REPLICA of Del Boy’s iconic Only Fools and Horses yellow van is up for sale – and you won’t need to be a millionaire to snap it up.

A superfan of the hit show is flogging the classic three-wheeler that looks just like the original, while its asking price of £10,000 means it’s sure to attract a lot of interest.

The Reliant Regal Supervan is bright yellow and branded with Del Boy’s famous company Trotters Independent Traders.

There is a rack fixed on the van’s roof, while the motor also comes with suitcases that fit snugly up top.

Inside the van, there are two brown leather seats, and the interior looks to be in pretty good condition.

The current owner, from Staines, Surrey, admits he will be sad to sell his beloved vehicle.

He claims that the van has had a lot of work done to it including a new clutch, gear stick gaiter and front tyre.

The eBay listing reads: “I am reluctant to sell this van as I have been after one for quite some time and had all of this work done.

“But I have had things crop up lately and unfortunately I now need to sell it.

“The van has been worked on for a few months to get it back on the road

”The van is nearly finished, it has had all new parts as stated above but has an issue with the carburettor so is running a bit rough and will need looking at.

”Heater box needs new plastic pipes, which are easy and cheap to buy and needs to be wired up and possibly needs a new wiper motor.“

Several cars were used on the Only Fools and Horses set of the show during its run on the BBC from 1981 to 1991.

An original 1968 Robin Reliant used on the sitcom sold for £42,000 at an Auction in 2017.
