Your van: The vanguard of your business What’s the first thing clients see when you arrive at a premises? Even before they see you, it’s likely they’ll see your vehicle, which is why choosing the right van for your business and looking after it in the right way is essential to presenting a professional image. Make the wrong choice, and you risk expensive bills for your business, and worse, letting your customers down. Part of the challenge is knowing how to choose the right van. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has a dedicated network of 97 Van Centres and Authorised Repairers – all of whom are specialists and understand the needs of van, as opposed to car, drivers. They can offer advice on choosing the right vehicle and accessories, the right finance, replacement cycle and, of course, in-life care. They understand that if your van’s not working, you’re not working. The company also offers the newest range of vehicles in the market, from the compact Caddy, through the iconic Transporter and all-new Crafter to the Amarok pick-up, which is a popular choice for those builders who need a robust workhorse that transforms to a hobby and family friendly car when they’re off duty. 140
