An MFS scania is normally about 440k-450k fitted out depending on how many they get. When stirling were first looking at a pumper they were told of a scania being placed on the end of the MFS order, Australian Fire Company went bust so couldn't build the White Scania, so CFS cut costs and ended up paying around 400k for stirling pumper after all the problems it is probably more. The Type 2's are 320k for a bulk order. Dennis now yes Camo the quoted price was 100k, that truck would have cost at least 400k-500k after all the stuff ups. It is still getting fixed and yes it is a good truck but it is now 15 years old, what was gained....CFS and the government need to bite the bullet and buy 5-10 heavy duty pumpers and give them to the brigades that need them. So what if you spend 440k on a scania at least it will last and not be in the workshops every 5 seconds.
