Van guide for business buyers

Van insurance holders thinking of making a new purchase might want to refer to a recently published guide from British Car Auctions (BCA) when making their choice.

The auctioneering firm has gathered details of the used marketplace's best-selling vans to help small and medium-sized firms make the right decisions when selecting a new model.

"First of all operators want to be sure that they’re the best vehicle for their needs. But, as importantly, they need to ensure that whatever they choose will get a good price when they come to resell," stated Duncan Ward, BCA's head of commercial vehicle sales.

According to the firm, the Ford Transit is the market's bestseller at the moment, but companies might consider opting for the Traffic or Vivaro if they want a vehicle that drives like a car but benefits from a practical load capacity.

Drivers, potentially including van insurance holders, should also consider the value of the model, BCA states.

Earlier this month, the firm urged sellers to remove waste from their vehicles if they wanted to achieve the best price.
