This 1124cc Hillman Minx-based Commer 8cwt light van was registered in September 1937 and is now showing  00346 miles on its odometer. It has, at some point, been restored although it isn't known when. It is known to have been standing for a long time, but has just been brought back to the road, with a new battery. It is running and driving, although during our test drive, it seemed that the clutch didn't always engage the gears. There's no MoT; its last expired in July 2007 after being tested the previous year at an indicated 303 miles. However, as an historic vehicle, the Commer no longer requires annual testing. The only paperwork is a current and past V5C and a 1946 Hillman Minx owner's handbook.
