It has also featured in several media roles of the period, notably the film Ice Cold in Alex starring John Mills, where it was called "Katy", Our model brings back to life that vehicle as it appeared in the movie. Many images of the then Princess Elizabeth in her wartime ATS uniform show her either under the bonnet or behind the wheel of a K2 Ambulance which she was trained to drive. And so on to this detailed replica. The physical features of the real thing are there for you to appreciate. Decorated in a sand camouflage colour scheme with darker sand canvas roll up doors and seating, the Red Cross logo appears on every surface. The yellow bridge plate is printed with the number 5 and the leaping red gazelle against the white background on both the front and rear signifies deployment to the Western Desert, home to the gazelle. The white WD Census number of this K2 - A121370 KATY - is printed along the edge of the bonnet and also along the bottom of the offside back door In addition to its deployment in the West African Campaign, after the War, the K2 Ambulance also served in Germany with the Allies, followed by action in the Korean War in the 1950s. It is estimated that around 50 examples still survive today, which is a heartening thought. Austin K2 Ambulance Copyright 2003-2023 The Flying Mule, Inc.
