The Austin Tilly served admirably in both a military and civilian environment and this workhorse would have been ideal as an emergency services auxiliary vehicle.

Decorated in the livery of the LCC London Fire Brigade which is printed in gold along the sides, this ‘Tilly’ registered GYP 2, has a bright red body with black chassis and trim. It also features the original ‘canvas’ back in light beige with roll up side window and rear blinds. The interior is moulded in black. Additional detail includes the spare wheel above the driver’s cabin as well as a spade on the roof, which has been given a light tan handle.
