Help needed for operation Florian
Discussion
Hi all, i have a good friend who works for Florian (the humanitarian fire and rescue service). He is looking for a Land Rover based fire tender of some sort, preferably a forward control unit, to take to events etc as a fund raising vehicle.
He has not had much luck finding the right vehicle so i thought i would ask the collective genius that is PH on the off chance one of you know where he can lay his hands on one.
Condition is not that important, something like a rolling restoration is what he is after. Money is tight as Florian is a charity but he has a reasonable amount for the right vehicle.
Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated, cheers guys

Might be worthwhile getting him to chat with Brooklands museum in Surrey - http://www.brooklandsmuseum.com/
They had a couple of ratty looking Range Rover fire tenders when I was there last. Not sure if they'd be open to selling a museum piece, but they were looking a little unloved, so you never know.
Edited to add picture of said RR.

Searching 'Land Rover Fire' in google throws up some results too

Yeah stumbled on that site last night doing a google search. I think the whole ex fire engine scene seems to be a bit fanatical, somewhat VW like. Hoping to find an honest vehicle at a reasonable price which will ultimately serve a very good purpose. Idealistic i know but we live in hopeNo idea if they are new builds or used or how much anything is lol.... but who knows, might be worth a look
