Found this video while I was looking for something else and thought it may be of interest to some.

In the near ten minute video is a convoy of emergency service vehicles from police, fire, ambulance, first aid, first response, marshall, rescue, recovery, military, bomb disposal, etc... some very new and recent and some classic (Land Rover, MG, Rover, etc...) in their various liveries with the 'Battenburg' livery the present one though a few forces have their own livery.

Worth watching with either a beer or coffee. It shows some emergency vehicles through the ages (three cars that the U.S. people would recognise at the three minute mark).

They aren't in any particular order, some are together and some are split up a bit.

Even though when I picture a modern British police car, I picture a Ford, Volvo, or BMW with fluorescent battenburgs, my ears still expect to hear the old sirens like @4:25.

And I don't know what was cooler, the Unimog, or the fact that the kid knew what it was.

Yes, that would be the Dennis fire appliance at 4:35. Quite a few of the Dennis units still had those up to 2000+.
