P330 FVR wasc originally delivered as N635 XBA, but was re-registered prior to entering service. The other two - which were wholly bodied by Clayton Tankers - were delivered as P331/332 FVR. P330 was the only one that was a Saxon.

Do you know where the other two are now ?

P331 FVR went to First Defense (yes, spelling is correct), and P332 was auctioned at Belle Vue in October 2010, but I don't know what happened to it.

Does anyone know if 330 is for sale & who to contact? We would be interested if it is so we can reunite it with 331 which we are operating.

P331 FVR is owned & operated by 1st Defense Fire & Rescue Services in Surrey. P332 FVR is owned & operated by Firetech in Dorset.

Hi, P330 FVR is owned by a friend of mine and he WILL NOT SELL HER as he uses it around his place of work, He was requested to get a newer water carrier by his insurance co as his old one had seen better days after several loyal years service. Sorry about this. Ivan

Many thanks for that Ivan. If he should decide to sell her at a later date please let me know. Kind regards Peter.
