JCB wrote A real rarity in UK, a Fiat 241 pick up as AFAIK these were never sold in Britain, I certainly never saw one. So what is Bob the builder doing driving one around in Kent ep4.16 ? Commercial Motor may have the answer as it says 6 were imported to gauge market reaction in 1970. So I guess this is one of them (I knew what it was straight away as by age 10 I had memorised this truck and all the others in the 'Ladybird Book of Commercial Vehicles' that resided in my classroom :) )

dsl wrote ^ Give it a page!! Glass's actually lists it as "27½ cwt 241T [241AT]" from Nov 69 to disappearing after Jan 74, 1438cc, GVW 2.7 tons, ribbed steel bodywork, drop-down sides and tailgate. So I guess the 6 testers unleashed waves of demand ..... but I can't think that I ever saw one.
