- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Allegro Pandas were quite common at the time. I think the cops saw them as modern day Morris Minors!  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

The same system was also used in France, to access narrow streets or courtyards where a truck couldn't get in, OR to continue using available equipment.

LOTS of examples if you check  "echelle sur porteur pompier" on google.

Those are great, thank you!  A good comparison between the different systems.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Sark Doctor's Massey Ferguson.  Isolated communities often come up with their own Heath-Robinson approach to problems.  This tractor is used by the Doctor and the box on the back is used for transporting patients!

An addition to the Doctor's vehicle, Sark's ambulance and one of their fire engines.  Cars are not allowed on Sark, only tractors, hence the odd vehicles.

There was a story in 2000AD called Mercy Heights, about a Space Station Hospital, and the Med-Shuttle is a pretty cool design.

Basically a box with add-ons, so pretty easily buildable.

I tried looking for it but my Goggle-Fu failed.
If anyone still has the comics, maybe they could help?
