Almost retro II

Post by rolandrat » Sun Jul 24, 2011 5:44 pm

This pic of Feuerwehr Reutlingen's FüKW-TEL 80 has been taken in 2002, shortly before decommissioning.

Apart from the silver rims and hubcaps a very original sample, one of the best I ever saw. No wonder, the mileage was unbeaten 16,000 km!

No, a bona fide statement!

As a rule there are 30,000 - 40,000 km on the clock, I know. Reutlingen is a rather big city with a large Feuerwehr fleet. The Einsatzleitung (= operation management) could use more modern and appropriate vehicles for their purposes and the FüKW had been nursed.
