Excalibur CBK bodies on a Dennis Sabre are very rare - there is one example on Mersaeyside - the Excalibur bodied Sabre P812PCA. Excalibur went out of business in August 2004 after a fairly short life in the market.

Why is the rear locker smaller than the rest

Added by Luc Galloway on 11 February 2010.
The rear locker is lower because the 9m ladder runs down at a steeper angle, cutting through the top of the rear locker.
If you look on the roof of the body, you can see how steep the head gear is for the 9m.
Hope this helps

I have just noticed that it already equipped with a 9m/10.5m ladder. So the ladder in question may possibly be a 6m.
Sorry for the confusion.
