Temperature-controlled van hire specialist Freezerent has celebrated its 10th anniversary by taking delivery of a brand new refrigerated Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. The van is the Wolverhampton-based firm’s 100th Sprinter.<\/p>\n

\"Freezerent<\/p>\n

Founder and Managing Director Lee Dorward says that offering vans bearing the three-pointed star “can help to finalise [spot rentl] deals”.<\/em> Mr Dorward also believes that Sprinter quality is superior to that of competing brands:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve certainly tried vans by other manufacturers but they didn\u2019t stand up to the job as well as a Mercedes-Benz,\u201d he said. \u201cThe Sprinter offers outstanding reliability<\/a>, fuel-efficiency and driver appeal, as well as leading the market in terms of its safety features. Everyone likes to drive a Mercedes-Benz and when it comes to spot rental in particular, it can help to finalise a deal if the vehicle you\u2019re offering has this high level of quality.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Although Freezerent has tended to buy Mercedes Approved Used Sprinter vans in the past, the firm’s 100th Sprinter is a brand new model in 313 CDI spec with a GAH refrigeration unit fitted by Vantastec.<\/p>\n

Freezerent anticipates that new vehicles with single- and multi-temperature configurations will now account for a much higher proportion of future purchases. The company is clearly one of the many Sprinter loyalists who believe<\/a> the German van remains the best in class<\/a> for demanding jobs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
