Did anyone else notice the glaring error in the commentary at 2:23:37 when the Del Boy van appeared and the commentator called it a Robin Reliant.
It's a Reliant Regal you ignorant person you.

Most people will only remember a three wheeler called a Reliant Robin...and the media don't care about accuracy; it's a wonder they didn't call it a Vintage Car!

If it was a van, then it's the Reliant Supervan III, the Regal was the car version Smile
