Del Boy’s Reliant Regan from Only Fools and Horses hits auction for eye-watering sum… but there’s a catch

AN ONLY Fools and Horses-style Reliant Regan has been placed on auction for an eye-watering sum - but there is a catch.

The iconic three-wheeler van, owned in the series by Trotter’s Independent Traders, is on sale with a number of accessories.

They include Derek Trotter’s sheepskin coat, hapless brother Rodney’s camouflage jacket and a blow-up doll made famous by the classic episode Danger UXD.

In the hilarious episode, the Trotters are left with 50 dodgy self-inflating dolls filled with explosive propane gas.

The vehicle was regularly used by aka Derek “Del Boy” Trotter, played by David Jason, and his younger brother Rodney, played by Nicholas Lyndhurst.

The car is expected to fetch £11,000 at auction.

But the three-wheeler is a replica, rather than the original vehicle used in the hugely popular comedy series.

Simon Langsdale who sourced the car for CCA, said: “This excellent little van is sure to put a smile on the face of its new owner.

“It is a well-crafted reproduction of Derek Trotter’s famous yellow van.

“In the language of the show this is surely the very meaning of ‘lovely jubbly’. The vehicle is based in the Hertfordshire area.”
