Bedford Vehicles, usually shortened to just Bedford, was a brand of vehicle manufactured by Vauxhall Motors, which was ultimately owned by General Motors (GM). Established in April 1931 and constructing commercial vehicles, Bedford Vehicles was a leading international lorry brand, with substantial export sales of light, medium, and heavy lorries throughout the world. It was General Motors Europe's most profitable venture for several years.

Scottish marine engineer Alexander Wilson founded the company at 90–92 Wandsworth Road, Vauxhall, London, in 1857. Originally named Alex Wilson and Company, then Vauxhall Iron Works from 1897, the company built pumps and marine engines. In 1903 the company built its first car, a five-horsepower single-cylinder model steered using a tiller, with two forward gears and no reverse gear. About 70 were made in the first year, before the car was improved with wheel steering and a reverse gear in 1904. A single survivor could still be seen at the London Science Museum in 1968. A 1903 model was entered in the London to Brighton car run in 2018.

Ode to a Modern Classic Number of views as of 17th March 2018 = 290. Sunday was a sad day for me, We drove down, parked by the sea, Photographed for posterity, It's the end of the road for you and me. When I think of all the miles we've done, Ninety-six thousand, two, seven, one, Memories of Scotland, Ireland too, And English counties, quite a few. Didn't always treat you as I should, Would have done better if I could. Your alloy wheels, jade green paint, Seven seats, going any which way. You were the best we've ever had, Never let us down, on any day. Goodbye friend, long may you run, Your metallic heart beating in the sun, Never get bogged down in the mud, Hope your successor is just as good. Date: 23rd January 2011. Click here to view...
