Wrightbus and Close Brothers in StreetLite distribution deal17 June 2015

Wrightbus has struck a deal with Close Brothers Commercial Vehicle Solutions for distribution and financing of its StreetLite bus range.

Close Brothers has placed an initial stock order for 50 StreetLite buses, available for rental and leasing by bus operators.

Close says the arrangement will enable operators to secure immediately delivery of a vehicle.

"This is particularly important for those operators who perhaps don't want to take the step of an outright purchase with the level of capital expenditure this can involve, and instead may prefer to look at alternative leasing and flexible rental options," says Mike Beagrie, managing director of the finance company's bus and coach division (pictured, right, with Ian Downie, head of sales and customcare at Wrightbus).
