Very nicely illustrates a rather bizarre feature of this generation of Dennis fire engines.

The steering column is offset about 100mm to the left of the center line of the driver's seat.

No one has ever been able to explain to me why they did this. It seems to have been an easy problem to avoid, and was not a "feature" of their later 20+ series...
