What a machine. I wonder in hope that we in the UK see machines like this one day due to the fact that we don't seem to have any indigenous chassis builders anymore. The nearest we have are the Mercedes-Benz 1328"Atego" TVAC WrL's in North Wales and the MAN/TVAC pumps in Mid & West Wales. Ziegler have taken themselves to new heights with this machine.

The vehicle is too high. In Hamburg, we only buy four-wheel chassis.

They would work well in our mountainous terrain Heiner. There are many hard to get to farms and isolated properties that this appliance could get to with no trouble at all.

Here in Hamburg, we have no mountains, but all fire vehicles have four-wheel. :-)
