Added: 23 October 2018

Eariler this month we headlined a Used Truck client experience day, the first of its kind at Mercedes-Benz Trucks, Wentworth Park, Barnsley.

Tim Sutcliffe, Used Trucks Executive uplifted the Approved Used experience to the hub of Mercedes-Benz and welcomed WT Transport and Baldwin Transport.

Head of Used Trucks, Tom Morris commented “The purchasing strategy of a used truck customer has changed from the typical perception and is focused on truck efficiencies and total cost of ownership. With this shift in the used procurement strategy there is a clear need to demonstrate and exhibit what makes a Mercedes-Benz used truck better than competition.”

City West Commercials are the first dealer to take a proactive approach and host a used truck specific customer event. Hosted by Tim Sutcliffe, the experience day was a product showcase for the Approved Used programme adding “Our clients are invested into the future and today was highlighting the benefits of Approved Used, identifying our customers growth and their needs for maximised efficiency across the full range of Mercedes-Benz trucks.”

Clients, WT Transport a leading customer for Mercedes-Benz Approved Used and Midlands based transport company, Baldwin Transport, accessed the full range of Mercedes-Benz products with efficiency at the forefront and was according to Sean Baldwin from Baldwin Transport, a winning combination.

Sean Baldwin commented “We are a family run business and the value of Approved Used is outstanding but this experience allows us to make concise decisions for the future particularly with ultra-low emission zones. I know City West Commercials and Tim will deliver the exact partnership and service to achieve that impact of efficiency for our business.”

Richard Skidmore, Head of Product Demonstration at Wentworth Park added “The range of Mercedes-Benz product at Wentworth Park allows a unique ‘hands on’ approach for clients to truly understand their vehicles from technical advice to the fuel savings of Predictive Powertrain Control.”

It wasn’t all Approved Used however as WT Transport and Baldwin Transport got behind the wheel of the Unimog and the new eCanter, a specific highlight of Warren Tattersall of WT Transport who identifies with the capabilities of the truck for the future.

Operating a mixed fleet from his Northampton depot, WT Transport are at the forefront of identifying synergy between Approved Used and New Trucks and with a nationwide delivery City West Commercials are well placed to service that requirement.
