The George Inn country pub and restaurant is set in a small village called Cwmtwrch in the picturesque Welsh Valleys.
Parked alogside a footpath, to the Pub restaurant is a Reliant Robin Van which is signed with the Text: "Trotters, Independent Trading Co.
New York, Paris, & Cwmtwrch."
The Vehicle in the TV series was a Reliant Regal Supervan III.
The Van on display is a Reliant Robin. that replaced the regal in 1973.
"Reliant Regals and Robins enjoy something of a special place in British culture as symbols of British eccentricity. An example of a Regal is the iconic van belonging to Del Boy and Rodney Trotter in the long-running BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses. The van is frequently, and incorrectly, referred to as a Robin or Robin Reliant by the public, but it is actually a Reliant Regal Supervan III. The Trotters' original van is now on display in the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu, while one of two 'back-up' vans was sold in 2007 for more than £44,000
to British boxer Ricky Hatton, but afterwards it was found this was a replica sold as a genuine film vehicle. There were several Reliant Regal vans used in filming; in series 2 of Only Fools and Horses the inside of the van is now red after the original van was sold between series and only a red van could be sourced and then resprayed with the previous van's number plates fitted for filming."
