Description

Estimated Price: £18,000 - £24,000

  • Built new as a Firefly fire appliance and affectionately known as 'Angus', this 109-inch Land Rover entered service at Leavesden Hospital, where it remained until 1981, subsequently serving as a site fire tender at GEC Gravesend before entering private ownership in 1989
  • Refurbished during its later life and subsequently restored for airfield duties, including service with The Shuttleworth Collection, this well-travelled fire appliance has an interesting history spanning several decades of operational use
  • Indicating just 32,094 miles at the time of cataloguing, it presents well with a smart interior and blue emergency lights. Reported to start readily and drive well, it attended a number of events during 2025 and has benefited from recent routine maintenance prior to the sale
  • Accompanied by its pump trailer powered by a Coventry Climax engine, together forming an appealing historic firefighting combination with considerable interest for enthusiasts of specialist Land Rovers and emergency service vehicles
  • Supplied with an assortment of firefighting equipment, which remains untested. An unusual opportunity to acquire a characterful former service vehicle, equally suited to preservation, historic vehicle events or inclusion in a specialist collection
