Bedford World

Once you really did see them EVERWHERE....now join us in trying to keep that slogan alive today.

WELCOME to the wonderful world of  BEDFORD VEHICLES , a name that has been known all around the world for the last 75 years as the supplier of small and medium weight commercial vehicles of all types.

The BEDFORD-WORLD website is a spin off from the Bedford Register which was originally started in 1977 in an attempt to record details of preserved Bedfords in Britain, now we are a worldwide organisation and we are still collecting data, no matter what the vehicles are, lorries, coaches, fire engines, military vehicles, horse boxes, camper vans or even mobile libraries !

Our website aims are simple,  to keep our readers up to date with NEWS from all around the world concerning BEDFORD vehicles and  also to help and assist owners and would-be owners whenever possible.

But our interest is not only preserved Bedfords hat take our interest, we wish to present you with information in Bedfords at work and play, no matter whether it is an old school bus, a horsebox or  the off roaders with their trials trucks or a working fire engine. 

Our organisation has its base within the European Union, but has active supporters and friends in more than thirty countries and especially in Australia, Malta, Namibia, New Zealand, Pakistan and South Africa.

For the real BEDFORD enthusiasts, we are preparing a new full colour magazine which will be available by subscription only and this will take an in-depth look at Bedford fleets around the world, Bedfords at rallies in photos. It will also look at individual models and restorations and hopefully will be well received when it is published later in the year.

BEDFORD owners who have registered their Bedfords can automatically become "members" of the Bedford Register  and its FREE !

We invite you to check out our various pages and don´t forget to look at whats new in our Bedford Marketplace where buyers meet sellers and the announcements are FREE to everyone.

And please, if you see an old Beddie tucked away in an orchard, a barn, or yard, don't keep it to yourself,  let us know and we will see if anyone will rescue it,  we don't want it to end up like this pair of OB's seen in a wood in Northern England a few years ago by Stuart Bell and now sadly having rotted away beyond the point of no return.  

Most of all we want to hear from our site visiters from all around the world, no matter whether you asre a Bedford, Opel Blitz or Holden owner or just a fan of the BEDFORD marque,  please drop us a line or at least put a few words in our Guest Book by clicking HERE.

And finally we hope you enjoy your visit to Bedford-World and hope to see you back again real soon.
