Vauxhall has supplied six Movanos to Essex-based Magnolia Building Services, a mechanical and electrical contractor for the transport sector.

The Hockley firm took delivery of its first four black Movano L2H2 commercial vehicles from Vauxhall Commercial Vehicle retailer Tony Levoi Lakeside earlier this year.

Having since experienced a boost in business, the company recently added a further two; a Movano L3H2 and a Movano Crew Cab Tipper.

The business, which works with London Underground and other rail companies, is already enjoying the benefits of massively lower running costs, thanks to the improved fuel economy and reduced maintenance needs of the Movano.

Clint Spearpoint CEO of Magnolia explained: “For the first eight years of our business, we ran a fleet of various ageing vans, which we have spent a lot of time and money running and maintaining. Now we have switched to Vauxhall, we now no longer experience the associated problems of mechanical down time that we used to when our old vans were off the road for repairs!”

He continued: “In addition to this we have also ordered our first company cars, two Astra Sports Tourer ecoFLEX diesels, which have been superb in cutting costs throughout our transport needs.”

Simon Dayes, Sales Director at Tony Levoi, said: “We are delighted that Magnolia has taken on a fleet of Vauxhall commercial vehicles; we always knew the Movano was impressive, and having heard just how successful their business has become, is testament to the model’s performance and practicality. We are confident the Movano vans will serve the company long into the future.”

Richard Collier, Vauxhall’s National Commercial Vehicle and B2B Manager, added: “We are enjoying great success with the Movano, and Magnolia’s experience of lower running costs, is one we see regularly. It is testament to the model that we can cater for the needs of businesses such as Magnolia.”
