the SDS Mini Van (known by the PAT 4 numberplate) is a vehicle used by the SDS.
Pat Clifton uses this van while working at the Special Delivery Service in Pencaster, whenever he is tasked to carry smaller loads with it, such as carrying pancake mix for a pancake race event. It is shown in The Official BBC Children in Need Medley.
Multiple versions of this van appear in Postman Pat The Movie.
Technical Details[]
Livery[]
It has white lining running right along it like all the SDS vehicle fleet.
Basis[]
As PAT 4 shares the same basis as PAT 1, it is freelance designed, but it is likely to be based on a shortened 1980’s Freight Rover Sherpa van with several stylings taken from the 1980 LAWIL (Lambretta) van and the 1st generation Mitsubishi Town Box/Proton Juara.
