2001 Volvo FL-220 / Excalibur water tender ladder, OV51 FBA, photographed in 2011 when allocated to Wantage.

This rescue tender, M656 TWL, at Kidlington in 1998 was built by Excalibur on a Volvo FL6.14 chassis in 1995. Oxfordshire machines were, and still are, almost exclusively built on Volvo chassis.

This Volvo FL6.14 / Excalibur water tender ladder, R499 YRP, was new when pictured at Rewley Road, Oxford, in 1998. Excalibur SV went into receivership and ceased trading in August 2004.
