Glasgow-based Fairways Group has bought two more Sprinter 313 CDI vans, adding to the 16 Sprinters already at its grass machinery sales arm, Fairways GM, and the Citan 108 CDI at its Sportsgrounds division.
The new Sprinters were specified with the 129bhp engines, claimed to be up to 15% (4.5mpg) more economical than the equivalent model from the previous range.
"Our previous Sprinters have served us extremely well so we had no hesitation in choosing more Mercedes-Benz vehicles," says Fairways Sportsgrounds contracts director Dave Gibson.
"We were also keen to maintain a consistent corporate image by having the same smart, professional-looking vans across our divisions," he continues.
"But we also wanted vehicles that would be reliable and safe for our operatives, as well as offering low operating costs and coming with the safety net of high quality support from a local dealer. The Sprinter ticks all of those boxes."
