LONDON estate agent Foxtons, is taking delivery of 185 Mini Coopers through a contract hire arrangement with LeasePlan's 'Barclays Vehicle Solutions' division.

Chosen for its high quality, performance and excellent fuel economy, the Mini Cooper is ideal for day to day use in heavy London traffic and perfect for Foxtons who have 10 offices throughout the capital.

In keeping with 1960's London tradition, Foxtons' Mini Coopers have been personalised, with styling cues taken from its racing heritage. Gerard Nieslony, Foxtons Group Financial Controller, sees the Mini complementing the other quality marques on the fleet.

Mike Field, BVS Divisional Manager commented this was one of a number of significant deals won since BVS became operational earlier this year as a result of Dial Contracts sale to LeasePlan. Field's team is dedicated to providing funding solutions to customers across the Barclays Bank Group.
