SO, POSTMAN PAT reckons he can get 78mph out of his Bedford HA Van? And 0-60naph in 26 secs? ("Action Van," CM 12 August). All I can say is, "I wish..."
My old, but lovingly restored. HA (left) wheezes to about 55mph tops (after about two minutes!), and anything faster leads to a vibration in the steering wheel so had that you have to lay off the accelerator.
The best I've got out of it is 63mph — and that was going downhill! Still, it is fun to drive (if you're not in a rush)...
