I like it! It has a very European look to it. :)

Nice design zeki. Would like to see a brick built version of this with one less locker between the axles to resemble the multi-star. Look forward to seeing a brick built version of your LLD aswell.

Reminds me its about time I updated my Scotsburgh FD with its Scania Bronto Allrounder ARP.

Yes lightningtiger the model will also be brick built.

scottwb2010: I have chosen this leinght in order to accomodate 2 ladder basis on top of the firetruck. If the model would be shorter it would be imposible. Also if you desire all the equipment in the truck that is in the description the 3 lockers per side would not be enought.

Thanks for the comments.

Hi zeki. I wish TLG would bring out a ladder probably about 1/2 t3/4 as long again to the ones they produce just now. The current ladders are OK when you build a Pump Fire Engine, but when you build an engine that requires longer ladder like a Turntable Ladder truck you have to join 2 ladders together which doesn't always work well and creates a weak point.
