‘Over the first half of the year,
‘CV production has been buoyant in the first half of 2007,’ commented Christopher Macgowan, SMMT chief executive. ‘Production in the second quarter was up 8.6 per cent versus 3.6 per cent in quarter one. Light commercial vehicles from Ford, Vauxhall, LDV and IBC are driving growth in this sector, as all saw production rise in June.’
