BCR Car & Van Rental has added the Mercedes-Benz 208D Sprinter vans to its commercial fleet. Initially BCR will buy 30 vans worth £412,000 at showroom prices, and expects this figure to rise to more than 100 during the next six months.

The Sprinters are being supplied by Coventry dealership Gerard Mann, and join BCR's other vans, the Citroen Berlingo and C15, and LDV Pilot and Convoy. Terry King-Smith, BCR chief executive, said: 'Van drivers deserve the same comfort, value for money and latest vehicle choice which we provide car drivers by offering the complete Rover range. By extending our van fleet to include the Mercedes-Benz, we aim to have the widest choice available to van hirers.'
