Record van, truck registrations in UK

Mar 7, 2005 3:18 PM

Figures late last week from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders show record van and truck registrations in the UK.

The rolling year to February set a new record at 392,582 units, up 7.7%. CV registrations for the month of February were 9,297 units, up 8.5%, with strong sector growth in car-type pickups and medium to heavy vans.

“These record rolling year figures show CV registrations still growing,” said Christopher Macgowan, SMMT chief executive. “Strong business confidence is driving investment in vans, trucks and buses. With CV registrations one of the best economic bell-weathers available, the outlook is excellent.”
