Description

A compact emergency vehicle

The name gives the game away: a vehicle that chases flames. At 56 pieces the build stays compact and can be finished in one sitting, yet there is enough material for a car with real character. The minifigure comes along as the driver and turns the model into a play set that slots into any street of the Classic Town world. Red is the dominant colour, which instantly marks it out as an emergency vehicle.

A colour mix with signal value

Besides red, the set uses light grey and black, plus trans-dark blue, which is typically used for windscreens or lights. The combination looks sober and technical, very much in the style of the early nineties. With 33 different part types among just 56 pieces, almost nothing repeats: the vehicle is built mostly from special shapes rather than standard bricks. That explains why small sets from this era appeal to collectors who hunt for individual elements.

Its place in the town

Classic Town was the theme in which fire station, police, petrol station and garage stood side by side. A single vehicle like this was the ideal add-on at the time: it cost little, needed hardly any space and gave an existing town one more emergency to deal with. Anyone building dioramas from that era today often looks for exactly these vehicles. The parts list on this page helps when checking a second-hand copy or rebuilding the model from loose bricks.

Making use of the parts

Even if you do not own the car in its original form, it is worth trying the What can I build? tool. It shows which pieces from this set you already have in your collection and which other models they can make. Many of the small special parts, such as windscreens, wheels and holders, appear in numerous vehicles, so one set can quickly give you several variations. That keeps the model flexible rather than fixed in a single form forever.
