Just trying to be proven wrong, that's all.....
Here we go to about 2.000 m. Not the Mont Blanc, for sure (I'm French). Boldly going nowhere Discovery 3 after a Defender 110 Crew Cab TD4 and a 1964 SIIA 88 Regular. |

It all depends where you start from  You start at 1000m in Chamonix for Mont Blanc (admittedly still higher than anything we have). However, you can't drive a Land Rover up it - someone has driven to the top of Ben Nevis in a Series II. One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS

James Bond is French??? Nah!! Charlatan! (That's a French word...) If you haven't climbed in Britain you would not understand, and I couldn't convince you. Carefully going everywhere |

Just to add something Alps are like priares compared with the Andes were 6.000 mt are normal. (Well, no Nepalese here) our skiing centers are located at almost 4.000 mt and some mining operations are upper than the Mont Blanc By the way, did you know that the altitude record in a car was done here by a chilean team that reach 6.688 mt in a Highly modified Susuki Samurai in Ojos del Salado.

All very good, children.
 Glad to see you've all been doing a lot of reading , but you're all 
Now, if the p1$$1ng contest is over , and now that we all know Umberto has a bigger one than Jean-Pierre  , can we get on with the subject in hand? 
Or does nobody on this forum actually know? Carefully going everywhere |

Just moving back to topic.
There are 2 things i would look at...first registering it as an ambulance and seeing what allowancies you then get. The second I was in a puma 110 ambulance with a full stretcher passenger side on Wednesday for work. It had (from memory) Driver and PX front seats, One PX seat on the drivers side 2nd row and behind that it had the racking for the kit required. So to explain a little better, seating for 3 in a L shape, 1 full stretcher and racking for the kit next to that behind the 2nd row PX seat. Mike |

Let's face it if you get in trouble in the hills, are you going to turn down a rescue because of semantics?
"No I'm sorry I'm not getting on that stretcher until you rename yourself a Hill Rescue Team"
My suggestion would also to talk to other teams, Langdale Ambleside got two new Puma 110 Utilities this year and the ambulance conversion work was done locally by Lakeland Land Rover rather than one of the specialist vehicle converters. You can email them at lowfold@lamrt.org.uk And keep up the good work MAD COW 2007 90 Hard Top - 2009 BMW F800GS - 2002 CCM 604E Dual Sport Project90 |

Cheers, both...
Extending your comments, MC, is one allowed into A&E at the hospital if the injury was not an accident but done on purpose?
