Model Description
Oxford Diecast 1/76th scale 76MK002 Bedford MK 12 Reg Royal Corps Of Transport British Army. Available to pre-order at Flying Tigers.
The Bedford MK/MJ was a 4×4 variant of the TK used in large numbers by the British Armed Forces and others. The Bedford MK was introduced in 1970 to replace the Bedford RL. It was very successful with over 50,000 produced. The MK/MJ was produced in many variants. From April 1981, Bedford changed the designation of the MK to MJ as the K multi-fuel engine was superseded by the J diesel engine. It was confirmed in March 2014 that, with the exception of a handful of light recovery vehicles, all British Army Bedford MK/MJ trucks had been disposed of, replaced by RMMV HX60 4×4 trucks.
After Bedford’s Dunstable factory was sold in 1987 to AWD, the MK restarted production for military only use until 1992 when AWD was placed in receivership.
