C-Tec Belfast added the Long-bodied Citan 109 CDIs after taking on responsibility for the Wales distribution service of the CT1 range of glues and sealing compounds.
“The Citans are great, very comfortable and relaxing to drive but with large and easily accessed cargo areas,” said proprietor Gavin Cairns. “Geoff and Alex are delighted with them, and are already reporting that they seem to be very fuel-efficient. They also look really smart in our CT1 livery, and help to reflect the high standards of professionalism and customer service on which we’ve built our business.”
The vans have been supplied by local Dealer Mercedes-Benz Truck & Van (NI), which also supplied the Vito.
“We initially bought a van from another manufacturer but it let us down, and the back-up was simply not good enough,” recalled Gavin Cairns. “We replaced it with our Vito and the difference was immediately apparent. Not only was the vehicle itself a class apart in terms of overall quality, but the service from Mercedes-Benz Truck & Van was streets ahead too.
“As dedicated commercial vehicle specialists they clearly understand our business and are always willing to be flexible to help keep us on the road – for instance, scheduling any maintenance outside our own working hours, to avoid unnecessary downtime. It was this combination of top quality vehicles and excellent service that led us back to Mercedes-Benz when we needed two more vehicles.”
