Only Fools and Horses van for sale

( 24/11/2008 )

Del Boy's iconic yellow three-wheeler is expected to fetch up to £30,000 when it goes under the hammer this week.

The 1968 Reliant Regal was used in the 2002 Only Fools and Horses Christmas Special, and features the famous lettering: 'Trotters Independent Trading Co. New York - Paris - Peckham'.

The reconditioned 600cc trader's van comes complete with a range of memorabilia from the cult BBC sitcom, including a smoke machine for 'exhaust cloud' effect, a set of blow-up dolls, furry dice and a 'tax in post' window note.

A remote control key also starts the car and activates a recording of the theme music from the show.

And in true Del Boy style, the van is upholstered in tiger print fur with a pair of leopard print knickers thrown in.

The famous set of three wheels is up for grabs at Bonhams auctioneers in London on 25 November.
