Trucks&more! ■ Guest Motor Group integrates dealership operations in strategic move! The company will service vehicles at the Black Country, UK hub. By Adam Beech A motoring group has launched a new £4 million commercial vehicle facility in the Black Country. Guest Motor Group, which specialises in sales and servicing for brands such as Iveco and Fiat, has opened the 28,000 sq ft facility in Bushbury. Branded as Guest Truck and Van, the new hub has regenerated a former bingo hall which has been designed to operate sustainably while servicing eco-friendly vehicles and fleets. The centre incorporates aspects of the site's history, integrating two commercial vehicle inspection pits into the remnants of the former railway maintenance yard, including preserved railway platforms and tracks that were uncovered during excavation works. It also accommodates group company Vehicle Lining Services which fits out vans and trucks including compliance packages for the London fleet operator recognition scheme. Twelve new jobs have been created as a result of the launch. Managing director Robert Spittle said: "Our objective in reviving this former bingo hall site was to demonstrate our commitment to the local community as well as the progressive trends in commercial vehicles. "By embracing emerging technologies like electric and alternative fuels, we're ensuring our services are in lockstep with the industry's trajectory. "This is more than just a branch, it is a symbol of our commitment to customer service, a beacon for sustainable alternatives and a statement of our intention to stay at the forefront of commercial vehicle trends." #Fiat #Stellantis #Iveco #Automotive #trucks #van #GuestMotorGroup

Continental has been at the core of Fuller Tyres’ provision ever since it won its first contract 14 years ago. Initially supplying Continental car tyres into rental fleets at London’s Heathrow and Gatwick airports, Fuller Tyres rapidly grew its operations. Today, the tyre supply and fitment business is arguably one of the South East’s largest. Operating from sites in Guildford and Southampton, the company boasts thousands of satisfied customers from a wide array of automotive sectors. Its growth has been helped in part by Continental’s diverse range of tyre solutions. Now well established as a supplier of consumer and commercial vehicle (CV) tyres, Fuller Tyres has seen demand for its off-the-road (OTR) tyre business rise significantly over the last decade. “We saw it as a natural progression from our truck tyre service,” said Craig Fuller, managing director at Fuller Tyres. “We have two vehicles dedicated to supplying and fitting OTR tyres, with more coming soon. Given our proximity to the coast, it’s great that we’re able to provide services to port and freight terminals, but we’re also working with businesses in sectors such as earthmoving, quarrying, waste and plant hire, too.” (Photo: Continental) Continental’s multidisciplinary approach to tyres is a significant benefit for Fuller Tyres. Customers are delighted that they can fit a single brand across a diverse fleet and enjoy the same high standards of quality and tyre performance on every vehicle. “We really value that Continental can cover everything under one umbrella,” Craig adds. “If we have a customer with forklifts, tugs, vans, trucks and trailers – Continental can do it all. That doesn’t necessarily have to be with the parent brand either. We stock Uniroyal and Semperit, for example, as well as Bandvulc retread tyres which are great, sustainable option for customers. “As a tyre supplier and fitter, the fact that Continental allows us to be a holistic one-stop-shop for clients is a big selling point. The brand offers a product that is suitable for around 95% of our need. It often makes the customer’s procurement process simpler and allows us to maximise efficiencies on their behalf.” Fuller Tyres’ commitment to the Continental brand extends beyond rubber to the innovative digital solutions available for CV operators. The company was one of the first in the UK to offer retrofitted ContiPressureCheck tyre pressure monitoring systems to customers in 2018. “We have an exceptional relationship with Continental,” says Craig. “They’re one of the easiest suppliers to work with and they go above and beyond to help us. The strong technical knowledge they offer is critical to us delivering great service for our customers and has undoubtedly helped to give us the confidence we needed to grow into different areas. It’s easy as an independent tyre retailer to be pulled from pillar to post, but having someone we can

‘Total cost of ownership’ was one of the key criteria that led to Western Star being awarded the 2024 Australasian Truck of the Year. Born from hard work, Western Star trucks have always been built to deliver more. More durability, more dependability, and a highly competitive total cost of ownership package for drivers across Australia and New Zealand. Featuring an all-new heavy-duty frame, the X-Series is engineered and built from the ground up to meet the demands of severe applications while still being lighter, more durable, easier to service, and extremely bodybuilder friendly. That means that from the start, you’ll have a truck that can handle more payload and deliver greater uptime for improved profitability. This is all backed by one of the strongest standard warranties in the business. Extended coverage plans for your truck chassis are designed to reduce downtime and costly repairs by extending protection for time and mileage above and beyond the factory warranty period. #ToYA #ToYA2024 #EraOfTheX #SeriousTrucks #WesternStarTrucksANZ #WhenOnlyARealTruckWillDo
