Oxford Diecast 1:43 Bedford CF Ice Cream Van

Chris Copner and his ice cream vans are centred in Abergavenny in South Wales but he attends events all over the country. He started in 2009 with just one van which in his own words was in need of repair but by 2021, Chris had been named as one of the top three ice cream mobile vans in the UK by the Ice Cream Alliance. Now he has four ice cream vans, both classic and contemporary.

Here we see one of his vans KNE 202V registered in 1979 decorated in a creamy white with masses of bright pastel shades displaying all the refreshing treats printed on all sides. The external bodywork also feature lots of promotional graphics such a ‘You’ve tried the rest, now try the best’ as well as a cautionary note on the back to ‘Mind that Child’.
