After exhaustive research, I've managed to find a little known but hugely important part of the J type's history.

Believe it or not, this plucky little van actually fought to save the world.

Picture the scene...

It's 1959, and a deadly enemy threatens humanity's very existence. What could possibly save us? That's right, it's time to break out our secret weapon, the J van.

       

Spluttering into action, the brave little Brit speeds straight to the scene of the invasion, and leaps fearlessly into the action.

       

The J takes on several fiendish foes in unarmed combat. "Take that you dastardly Dalek!!!!"

       

Please note the multi directional headlamps Ken, you wouldn't get that with those fancy modern integrated systems.  



Sadly though, things didn't end well for the cute little chappy, but his bravery in action will never be forgotten.

       

I don't actually know what happened to the invasion, but since we're all still here, I presume Dr Who managed to sort it all out in the end, but not without the help of our plucky little haulage hero.
