Some Fire stations are just "Lucky" in getting new ambulances so fast! I think Central will be next to have another new ambulance! -

perhaps you're talking about the much older ambulances but the latest ambulances uses LED as its beacon lights so no matter if its daytime or at night, motorists will be able to see it much clearer..

What is the standard 'lifespan' of each ambulance?

There are 5 different SCDF ambulances running now. The older versions might be the one you are talking about which the "Red" flashing on top is too light, or should i say, some has White/Pink lights due to over use over the years. -

Haha...yeah....use till can't use leow!! That's how the lifespan is!! Not only SCDF, even SPF also like that! The Nissan vans from 1990s are still in use!!! But lucky, SCDF ambulances never use from 1990s to now! Haha...the oldest SCDF ambulance running should be the QX44xx versions which are used when the main fleet breaks down... -
