• A contract for 130 dual-purpose ambulances has been placed with Dormobile Ltd, by the GLC.
The vehicle is based on the CFL chassis /cowl powered by a 2.3-litre petrol engine through an automatic transmission. To meet the high electrical peak load the alternator has been up-rated to 58amps and the batteries to 120 Alt.
The body is in grp with accommodation for two multi-posture trolleys and attendants' tip-up seats. Easy access to the spacious cab is through sliding doors; ease of patient handling is helped by low floor and rear step.
