All of the statutory ambulance agencies in Ireland use purpose built bodies on chassis manufactured by the vehicle makers (primarily Ford and Mercedes). Both The National Ambulance Service and Dublin Fire Brigade moved away from van conversions in the mid 90’s. The purpose built bodies are remountable unlike a van conversion. Also for clarification none of the ambulances pictured in the article are front line ambulances used to respond to 999 emergencies
