Hi folks

Thinking of buying a robur fire truck.
Does anyone have any pointers to look out for?

Thanks

Spares are hard to come by. They have an annoying habit of not wanting to start when hot. Make sure you have some spare fan belts with you as it is forced air cooled. It's a thirsty beast. Tyres are very expensive so make sure they are in good nick.

I like them, have owned two that I drove from Germany to UK. Could it be one of mine you are looking at?
