This fine little Bedford is still registered for commercial use by an unknown owner (unmarked) after being idle for a decade (1999-2009), the previous license plates may well have been the original enamel plates from 1968. This is the only time I've seen a Bedford HA since the 1970s. Placed in both truck- and car folders, since it falls between categories.

 

Going up the steep hill leading sw out of Aarhus past Viby and Stautrup. Underpowered and/or heavily loaded trucks often struggle here.

 

Tip: to locate trucks of particular interest to you, check my collections page, "truck collection" - here you will find all trucks organized in albums, by haulier (with zip-codes), year, brand and country.

 

Retirement age for trucks: many used trucks are offered for sale on international markets. If sold to a foreign buyer, this will not be listed in the danish motor registry, so a "retired" truck may or may not have been exported. In other words, the "retirement age" only shows the age, at which the truck stopped running on danish license plates.
