Classic Commer Ambulance at Manheim Auctions. Biglorryblog has the story.

Seeing as we've had a string of postings on Commers on Biglorryblog I thought you'd like this 1965 Commer Ambulance (with just 9,455 genuine miles on the clock) which was recently sold for £3,650 at a dedicated van and truck auction at Manheim Washington. The ambulance, sold on behalf of the North East Ambulance Service, was first registered in January 1965 and has only covered an average of 219 miles per year since then. Its V5 form shows only one owner from new and it has a full and comprehensive history file! That lucky new owner! 

It also provides an astonishing insight into how the emergency services have changed over the past 40 years. In the last 10 years alone it's won several awards at shows, fairs and exhibitions and still has all of its original equipment including stretchers, first aid bags, steel helmets, a gas mask, contamination meter, minuteman resuscitator, Civil Defence overcoats and a Neil Robinson immobilisation kit.
