A NEW Spanish-built fire engine costing £500,000 will be delivered to Oxford Airport, in Kidlington, next spring.
Airport managing director Mike Sparrow said: “Our existing fleet is ageing and does not reflect the modern facilities of the airport.
“Manufacturer Iturri was willing to work to our specifications and listen to our unique requirement.
“Our ultimate goal is to bring three new engines to our fleet within the next five years.”
Iturri vice-president Javier Iturri said securing a contract to supply a UK airport was was a real achievement for the firm.
