It's not strictly speaking transport in London, but does anyone have
contact details for the concern that operates the vans that distribute
the Evening Standard, i.e. if one wanted to complain, or at least pass
on an observation, about one of them, where should such a thing be pointed?

cheers.

The Evening Standard themselves would probably be a good first attempt...

Gee, thanks - and you wonder why I posted to uk.transport.london, it's
almost as if it might have been the first place I looked.

So what did they say when you rang 'em? "Sorry, we don't know who delivers
our papers"?

If they are breaking the law in any way then the police.

For anything else, look in the first page of the paper.. find the
standards phone number and ask them what company is repsonsible for
distribution

Pretty much. Certainly didn't want to tell me how to contact them
directly; happy to pass on a message, not happy to let me know where the
message was going to end up.

That would probably mean having to buy it. Which is something I do
generally try to avoid doing ...

Telephone directory? 192.com? Metro? The "Lite" version of the
Standard given away free? Someone's abandoned copy on the Tube or a
commuter train???
