The" English Patient "

On beginning there was as always the question: "Why? "I can basically just a" so just answer ". Of rational consumer choice, I am in my now 22 years of Opel vehicles passion think I have moved away about 20 years ago. Now it's all about style, size (and hence for I never been a cadet, regardless of the type in question would be) and of course rear wheel drive!

Well, and I've staked out a very narrow field for driving pleasure. All Ascona, Manta Rays and all records were almost all times then eventually "mine." The "big three from Rüsselsheim, the KAD series, then, were one day so affordable that they could be in the form of a diplomat 2.8E and later classified V8 in the circle of the elect. Then quickly followed by their successors, like Monza and Senator-A to A and omega-Senator-B. Only the Admiral-A, more or less a childhood dream of mine was missing a long time the collection was, but then, thanks to acquire Internet auction house and at some point in Baden-Wuerttemberg.

And so it was mid 2006, I just put in the preparations for our annual Ascona-A/B-Treffen, which also should not take place in Ascona (Switzerland), when I enter the same shot through the head that a Bedford-flash is on my list was missing.

Equipped with zero car knowledge, and as much about supply and demand for this brand strangest model of Opel I cried the first time to my friend Dirk, a car salesman: He may yet even the eyes and ears open, it is not hurried.

I myself had the idea, very expectation that it would probably take until Dirk answers, also rejected again. To me, so 14 days later, again came to mind. I was always away from the computer, so I began to seek views on the web. Neither the number one online used car portals, nor in the number two, I found one. "Well ...", I thought aloud," you have done what you so! "(Later, I got behind it, that I would not at Opel, Vauxhall but need to look at.)



Also warf ich den Begriff „Bedford-Blitz“ mal einer Suchmaschine hin, und siehe da, die Antwort kam prompt in Form des Bedford-Blitz-Forums. In dieses Forum war tags zuvor eine Verkaufsanzeige gesetzt worden, mit dem Titel: „Zwei sind Einer zuviel. Verkaufe 78’er Bedford-Blitz“. Dieses Angebot war so viel versprechend, dass ich nach Übermittlung weiterer Bilder und einer Besichtigung durch einen in der Nähe wohnenden Freund, eine Anzahlung per Überweisung leistete, um mir den Wagen zu sichern. Die Abholung bei Würzburg erfolgte dann gute 5 Wochen später auf dem Rückweg aus der Schweiz. Es war somit einer der ungewöhnlichsten Autokäufe, die ich until then RIP.

The "English Patient" took me with his belt already driven 1800 machine and loaded with many added parts home safely. Only one ignition wire had to be replaced until it finally went on the A7 north.

The car was the remnant of a formerly well-equipped motorhome. The interior was only present fragmented and was able to remain in any case. Also showed the 4-translated and poorly graded 1800s engine at highway driving absolutely annoying. There is a mandatory winter break So much was clear: get out machine (was not there somewhere in the depths of my hall, he and a 2.2 automatic?) renovation and expansion and child-friendly design!

that from the 2,2 ', he became a 3.0i 24V with automatic then, partly because of the love of these engines and the other on the glut of these engines in my fund. Despite the drag coefficient of a fitted kitchen with this engine at speeds beyond the needs 200km/h-Marke no problem.
for the adequate equipment now provides a bench with intriguing 3-point belts, and driver and front passenger will find custom Omega-chairs. The copy of the original and fully operational Combination of sitting and sleeping area does the rest to make Bedford a full-fledged family car.
The body was needed, except for the change attributable to changes in the aggregate, no hand to work and so was this point with an extended cavity sealing checked off quickly.

If you start with a "British" involved, one must increase, in addition to language skills, not just his tool box and his cabinet screws, but his circle of acquaintances. A car that not many people know and whose current registration figures in this country well at the height of Aston Martin Lagonda, are not very - we'll see from the still-numerous Bedford Hymer mutations - requires a whole new horizon screwdriver. And when you have to Alt-Opel Meet a master of "early" does that beats up his hands over his head when he thinks of the Bedford and when this master then stories like: "... we have previously solved forever, Who will repair, or there was a colleague who had other views Mist built, "is on its own, so then you know it's the right decision, a Badford to drive flash !
