But why was the Reliant Regal Supervan III chosen in the first place?<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">The Van was a small three-wheeled car manufactured by the Reliant Motor Company in Tamworth, England. Being a three-wheeler, and lightweight, the vehicle could be driven on a motorcycle licence in the United Kingdom. It in some ways is fitting for Del for those reasons alone.<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">\n<div id=\"attachment_1694\" style=\"width: 474px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ofah.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/Reliant-Regal-Supervan-III.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1694\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1694\" title=\"Reliant-Regal-Supervan-III\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ofah.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/Reliant-Regal-Supervan-III.jpg\" alt=\"Reliant Regal\" width=\"464\" height=\"238\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1694\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Reliant Regal Supervan III<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The iconic van belonging to Del Boy also is fitting due to..<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">\n<ul>\n<li>it has a wheel missing<\/li>\n<li>it is a cheap runaround<\/li>\n<li>it is an eccentric choice<\/li>\n<li>it is a van for hooky gear<\/li>\n<li>it doesnt require a full driving licence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Reliant Regals and Robins enjoy something of a special place in British culture as symbols of British eccentricity.
