About the Bedford 200
The Bedford 200 (often referred to as the AWD 200) represents the light-duty end of the Bedford truck range during its final years under the ownership of David J.B. Brown's AWD Trucks. Following General Motors' divestment of the Bedford heavy truck division in 1987, AWD continued to produce the venerable TK-based designs for export and specialist domestic markets. This 2.0-litre diesel variant was primarily aimed at urban delivery and light utility roles, offering a simple, rugged platform that was easy to maintain. While the Bedford brand was officially retired for civilian trucks in 1991, these final AWD-built units remain a testament to one of Britain's most prolific commercial vehicle lineages.

Bedford 200 fun facts
- After GM sold the truck division, the Bedford name could only be used on military vehicles; civilian versions were technically branded as AWD, though many still carried Bedford badges.
- The 200 series was part of a range that shared its basic cab architecture with the 1960 Bedford TK, one of the most successful British trucks ever made.
- AWD Trucks eventually went into receivership in 1992, leading to the end of this specific truck line, though the Luton plant continued producing vans under the IBC Vehicles joint venture.
