R334 WEC is a Citroen Xantia 1.9 turbo diesel estate car used by  Duddon Inshore Rescue, Cumbria. The vehicle is owned by a crew member and has been liveried up at the owner’s expense. It has the call sign of ‘Duddon 16 mobile’.



The rear view of the same car. It carries an interesting light arrangement. The crew are unable to use blue flashing lights. Instead, to increase awareness of the vehicle’s presence, two white strobe lights are mounted on the front grill. These are complimented by flashing lights on the dashboard and on the parcel shelf (red to the rear and white to the front). The car has been admired by the Chief Constable of Cumbria Police.



The striking livery of the car can clearly be seen on this picture. The car is able to carry five crew members and a substantial amount of equipment to an incident. The rescue organisation is a registered charity and is entirely voluntary funded. It welcomes any donations.
