TOM Vehicle Rental has taken delivery of 330 new Ford Transit models, bringing its Ford orders to more than 1,000 during the past year.
The Transits join a fleet of 8,500 vehicles on the books of TOM Vehicle Rental, servicing clients from sites in Manchester, Nottingham and across Scotland.
TOM, established in 1991, is one of the UK’s fastest growing companies in its sector. “In 2010 we had a fleet of 1,500 vehicles and one site,” says Group Sales and Operations Director James Rafferty. “Fast-forward to today and we have 8,500 vehicles across seven sites.”
Around 35% of TOM’s fleet is Ford-badged, and the latest order reflects the van of choice among customers. “We adapt to what our rental customers want,” adds Rafferty. “We find out what they are planning to do with a vehicle to ensure we provide them with the right one.
“Ford has a great range, from small vans to large, so there is something for everyone, and our customers like them. Ford is a manufacturer which stands by its products, which gives us peace of mind, with ease of maintenance a key strength of the Transit range.”
In another deal, conservatory manufacturer and installer Mozolowski & Murray has also taken delivery of 10 Ford Transit models.
