New Year - New Van

Late last year I decided that it was time I had a new van.  My LDV Maxus had run its course and it was time to move on.  The Maxus is Mobi-tyre's preferred vehicle only because it is value for money and gets us going.  Anyhow, I ordered a new Citroen Relay extra long wheelbase from V2L.

After two months of waiting the van finally arrived a couple of weeks back.  Its simply huge!  I spent 4 days lining the walls, putting down the floor and the Mobi-tyre signature treadplate floor.  The partition was installed that keeps my tyre storage, generator and compressor area separate from the work area.  On day 5 the tyre machine and balancer were fitted and on day 6 I was out on the road fitting tyres!

Most of my tools are in the van now, but given my OCD nature finishing the placement of every tool, cable and airline will be a three month work in progress!
Ooh look how tidy that is!

Today the van has been signwritten in the Mobi-tyre livery.  It will be the first van in the fleet to have original reflective livery for roadside work. 

Call that number!
You won't miss me with all those reflective stripes!


YUK!
On Thursday the light bar at the rear gets wired in.  With my top of the range bluetooth handsfree kit, Smartnav Sat Nav system and state of the art mobile laser tracking system, I truly believe I have the best equiped mobile tyre fitting van around!

So if you want to take a look at my van AND you need some tyres, call 0800 059 6099 or visit the Mobi-tyre website.
