Advertised for sale LRO 8/02 as "SERIES 1, 1957, 86" (!). Parabolic suspension, Range Rover diffs, 2A engine with Weber. Rewired, a fortune spent on this much loved vehicle. Totally reliable. £3750".
Bill Barnett wrote (12/04): "I have owned her for 8 years and you picked up an ad that I placed in LRO but I couldn't part with her when it came to the crunch. She is still in great nick and used every day.
A lorry driver stopped me recently and assured me that he used to drive 692 at Bedford Fire Station where she was sent from the Auxiliary Fire Service around 1964, she was then transferred to Dunstable Fire Station.
I throw money at her whenever she needs it and don't begrudge a penny!"
