Geoff Cobley, managing director, Fleet Management Services

Fleet Management Services managing director Geoff Cobley said the Mondeo's superficial changes would see it continue to do well. He added: 'But I think the Vectra is the best car in the segment considering everything. Fleet managers like its economy and the drivers enjoy its performance and handling. The 406 is attractive but I don't believe in operating costs it will match the Vectra or the Mondeo in the long term. The switch to the 406 has more to do with drivers just wanting a change.'
