It was unclear what happened to Bessie after this early period of the Fourth Doctor's life. According to one account, it was simply in storage aboard [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], seen there as late as the [[Sixth Doctor]]'s travels with [[Frobisher]] and [[Peri Brown|Peri]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Changes (comic story)|Changes]]'') Another account had it that [[the Brigadier]] had it "put into mothballs" at some point, having realised that the Doctor's visits to Earth were becoming more and more infrequent. It was brought out briefly in [[1997]] as the Brigadier and UNIT worked with the Doctor's [[Seventh Doctor|seventh incarnation]] to battle [[Morgaine]]; it was briefly criticised by [[Ace]], until the Doctor demonstrated its capabilities. ([[TV]]: ''[[Battlefield (TV story)|Battlefield]]''). | It was unclear what happened to Bessie after this early period of the Fourth Doctor's life.

[[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] later gave Bessie to [[John Benton]], partly as a joke as Benton once was a used car salesman. Benton then spent his time fixing Bessie. This proved useful when the [[Silurian]]s started attacking [[Kate Stewart]] and [[Petronella Osgood]] in [[Scafell]] as it became the only working car, and allowed them to escape.

Fancying himself an "artist," the [[Eleventh Doctor]] decided to "pimp" Bessie by hooking her up to the [[TARDIS matrix]] and turning on the random setting which transformed Bessie into a monster truck. [[Alice Obiefune]] later struggled to drive the newly transformed Bessie to save the Doctor from a group of possessed individuals under the control of the [[Talent Scout]] in [[1931]].
