The world’s smallest ice cream van is coming to Uxbridge to hand out free ice cream to shoppers in the intu shopping centre.
The bad news is that it's just for one day - Wednesday August 16.
The Nice Cream Van, which measures just 47 inches long and 39 inches high, has a maximum speed of 12mph.

It is on a nationwide tour of 14 shopping centres managed by intu in order to give shoppers a free treat.
It follows research revealing that eating ice cream is one of the top 20 things that make people happiest in the summer.
Others on the list include walking barefoot in the grass, taking a trip to the beach, having a barbecue, going on holiday and shopping for your summer wardrobe.
“We’re delighted to have created what we believe is the world’s smallest ice cream van but the real win will be seeing the smiles it puts on people’s faces at intu shopping centres around the country for those lucky enough to get free ice cream," said Roger Binks, customer experience director for intu.
There is no confirmed time for the van to be in either shopping centre apart from "around lunchtime."
