A C-registered Transit 8C Popular was entered by Birmingham rental company "I't meside Self Drive at a recei British Car Auctions sale at Measham. Temeside's marketing director Phil Keyes e plained that the company normally keeps its vans for one year, during which time they will typically cover 32,000km (20,000 miles).
This particular Transit wz sold with just 3,200km (2,01 miles) on the clock, to give TemeSide a guide to the eai stages of the new model's d preciation rate. Keyes repoi that it looks good; the Tran
bed slightly more than Tetide paid for it (as a large t buyer Temeside enjoys ittractive discount). semeside has 20-30 new nsit 80 Populars and will be ting one through the auci at two or three-monthly Tvals to build up quickly a ,reciation picture.
