NEWBURY-based computer services company, Norsk Data, is switching its entire 500-strong car fleet from Citroen to Nissan after a driver appraisal day.

Norsk fleet manager, Peter Carson, a former Fleet News Fleet Manager of the Year for medium-sized fleets, has all the job cars supplied by one manufacturer. The rest of the fleet is user-chooser but he favours a nominated supplier.

The Nissan choice is a major boost for the new Primera to be launched in the UK this autumn and which will make-up most of the contract. Under the two-year contract hire deal, vehicles will be supplied by Dial Contracts and BRS Car Lease.
