This 2.0-litre petrol Series I Land Rover fire engine comes complete with a fire pump trailer, and its odometer shows 27,228 miles. The engine bay appears largely original, complete with Solex carburettor and Iso-Speedic governor. The vendor advises that it will require recommissioning, including some attention to its brakes.

The only paperwork we have for the vehicle is its V5C, which indicates 2 former keepers. It was first registered on 14th September 1955, and its livery suggests it was once in use by Hoover Ltd.
