The new Vauxhall Vivaro<\/p><\/div>\n

Vauxhall\u2019s refreshed Premier Van Centre is set to shake-up the fleet aftersales sector with over 90 per cent of all UK businesses covered within a 30-minute drive time of one of\u00a0the company’s 100\u00a0Premier sites.<\/p>\n

Vauxhall van fleet customers can expect diagnostics without appointment, lead times no longer than three days and a dedicated Premier Van Helpline.<\/p>\n

Vauxhall will also collect and deliver vehicles within a ten-mile radius (five miles within the M25) and offer a courtesy vehicle free of charge.<\/p>\n

All Premier Van Centre sites will carry out Class 7 MOTs and have a 5-tonne lift on-site.<\/p>\n

Vauxhall\u2019s Premier Service Centres have to meet a strict selection criteria.\u00a0Only sites that can provide sales and service support and meet strict service level requirements can qualify for Premier Van Centre status.\u00a0Premier Van Centres are also listed on Epyx 1link for ease of identification and online service booking requests.<\/p>\n

Repairs are carried out at fixed labour rates with job sheets completed on the day the work is completed and invoiced within five working days, so no hidden or unexpected surprises. Customers can also take advantage of a while-you-wait option when a repair is expected to be completed on the same day.<\/p>\n

Once work is complete a 25-point safety check is carried out including all safety enhancements and software updates. Vauxhall even throws in a wash and vac with every annual service and free fitting of wiper blades.<\/p>\n

Motorbodies Luton was the first Vauxhall retailer to be granted Premier Van Centre status.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to looking after the needs of van customers,\u201d said Rachel Parker, Operations Director.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe always strive to deliver the very best in customer service and aftersales support.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The announcement of Premier Van Centres follows the launch of the all-new British-built Vivaro, which further enhances Vauxhall\u2019s award-winning van range.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are delighted to announce full details of our refreshed Premier Van Centres,\u201d said Richard Collier, Vauxhall\u2019s National Commercial Vehicle and B2B Sales Manager.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe enhanced programme brings industry-leading customer experience to Vauxhall Commercial Vehicle fleet customers with over 90 per cent UK coverage. Our nationwide network of van experts will deliver the highest standards of skills and expertise whilst also helping fleets save time and money.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Vauxhall isn’t the only company attempting to up its game in the van fleet service sector — Ford launched Transit24<\/a>, a similar service, shortly after the launch of its\u00a0Vivaro-sized Transit Custom van, last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
