Originally a mid-scale trial truck chassis equipped with L motor and servo, evolved after many unsuccesful tests manually steered truck with relicts of motorisation - for example, the axles - unnecessarily complicated front axle, and gears in the rear.
Live axles suspension with rather low travel.
The another fun feature is 8454 inspired arm and openable doors and boxes on sides.

If you visit enough Poundland stores you may well find quite a different selection of Matchbox on the pegs. Most have 2023 Case B but you can also find batches from 2021 too in long cards sourced from the Far East. One such branch had Case C in from that year and although most of the good castings had gone I was tempted enough to grab a couple of these Hazard Squad Fire engines.
Generic in design but entirely credible in styling this casting remains popular despite now having its entire body made of plastic.
Mint and boxed.

Learning just now of the names of the various sounds these behemoths make, thanks to Fulvue and firemanGaz, reminded me of this one I took when all 8 floors had to vacate yet again. Fine in the summer, not so fine in mid-winter, during a blizzard, in the middle of the night!

I respect and appreciate the Matchbox 2006 Fire Engine casting and as generic as it may be its good enough to buy small multiples of whenever it gets a new recolour. Its last was back in 2017 with this eye catching yellow and black City Fire Department livery. Bought from ASDA back in November 2017. Mint and boxed.
