Looks like what we have here is a Vario light pumper in the bay, along with a Unimog crew cab U400 brush pumper (with ground ladders) and an elderly Magirus 4X4 water tender sunning themselves in the yard.

These units could all have been bought new, or acquired second hand from Germany, it is difficult to tell. At different times, Greek fire services have done both. They generally seem to prefer German brands, and Unimogs in particular seem to be popular in light of the hilly rural brush areas and lack of accessible water for firefighting...
