Yes its true as the Brunei Fire&Rescue like to purchase fire appliance and every year the department always had tender for purchasing new fire appliance;-)

Based on my experience visiting Brunei - as an oil rich nation they are not short on budget; and have a tendency to buy at least one unit of the latest appliance.

What are the main roles of this vehicle? And is it unique to Exmouth?

Added by Yelp Bullhorn on 19 February 2010.
The main role of the Rescue Unit is to deal with road traffic accidents. There are several Rescue Units located at stations throughout Devon and Somerset, although the newer ones appear to be based on full-sized fire appliances. The Ford Ranger shown is no longer in service and has been replaced at Exmouth by an 'S' registered Renault panel van. Perhaps somebody crashed the Ford Ranger and wrote it off?
