The register lists here 11 versions with 45 to 59 kW from four- to eight-cylinders of 1,733 to 2,520 cm³, unladen weights from 1,245 to 2,480 kg, gross weights up to 3,500 kg and lengths from 4,770 to 6,000 mm.
The CF was, alongside the Ford Transit, Britain's most widely used large van for trade and commerce and a base for motorhomes and ambulances; on the continent it remained a niche product against Ford, Mercedes-Benz and VW.
On used examples, rust on the floor pan, wheel arches and door bottoms, clutch and gearbox condition, the injection pump on the diesel engines, and on motorhome and ambulance conversions damp and the condition of the added body parts all count; parts are now only available through Bedford and Vauxhall specialists.
