Is it a 4x4?

Vehicle looks in superb condition for it's age. This station must use a lot of polish to keep these so smart.

Looks in great condition despite its years, has it been lightly used or refurbished? low miles?

I am sorry, but I have no further information on these two appliances. I was visiting the Leach Pottery located across the street from the fire station when they drove by. I just managed to photograph these two as they were driving back into the station. The volunteers were eager to head back to their jobs, so I didn't try to query them.

I think you will find the firefighters are on the retained duty system
