Series 3 Ex RAF Fire Tender

It's been a while and I haven't blogged in over a month!
I've been extremely busy with other day-to-day things.

Here's another 109 that has come in, it's a 1978 Ex RAF Fire Tender.
Slightly different now to when it left service but it's got some interesting history. 
After serving in the RAF as a 'Foam Tender' that would have been kitted out with a large alloy bowser/tank on the back, it left service and was bought by a private airfield and used there for several years until bought again. It was then made fitted with seats in the rear and owned by a pilot of all people!

It's in fantastic condition and has obviously been lovingly maintained. It still has the 'two-tone' siren/horns which I keep having a play with :)
I hope this goes to a good home as it's a real peach.
Update:
This has been bought and will soon be en route to its new owner in Cambridge. Thanks Steve :)
