The appliance was new to Manchester Airport, I am sure there is loads of information on this site. The appliance was used to pump out flooded properties in the city of York a few years ago.

I think these vehicles were built for Chubb by a company named TT Boughton in Devon. They had a GM 16V 2-stroke diesel engine and an Alison automatic gearbox. As technical manager of Smiths, the maker of their dashboard instuments, I had a scary ride down the M4 in one at around 80mph
