Forget your average commercial van, buy a Vauxhall Corsavan

We've all been there, on our way home from work when all of a sudden a white van appears from nowhere in our mirror and gets closer and closer to our rear bumper. Over the years the stigma of the "white van man" has dogged many small business people but as Bob Dylan put it, "Times they are a-changing."

Yes, it seems that Vauxhall has introduced a car-derived van that will put all others to shame and will hopefully lessen the bad press that white van drivers have been battling with for so many years. The new Corsavan was brought out earlier this year and it was an instant success; the model has already picked up the prestigious title of 'Car-Derived Van of the Year' at the Professional Van and Light Trucks awards.

The managing director of the magazine that held the awards commented on Vauxhall's successful night and said: "This van is without a doubt the best in its sector. It looked good, it drives brilliantly and yet it is still a properly functional commercial vehicle, and not just a converted hatchback."

So, what's all the fuss about I hear you cry? Well for one thing, business entrepreneurs can now make their way around congested city roads with a little more style then previously available. The car and its 1.3-litre CDTi engine also make the Corsavan a zippy little vehicle that will almost guarantee you make your appointments on time, keeping yourself and your customers very happy about the unproblematic service provided.

For anybody who currently owns a commercial van, have a good look in the back and see just how much of the space you actually use. If you really only need a few items on a day to day basis then the Vauxhall Corsavan could be the vehicle for you. Not only is it small and economical but you could actually make a few savings on your motor insurance. And, with the car being so economical, you'll save even more on petrol than ever before, cutting down on those endless trips to the petrol station to fill up once again.

With the new Vauxhall Corsavan you'll be able to get about in traffic so much more easily. In today's busy city areas, it can be difficult for anybody to find a suitable place to park a Mini let alone a huge commercial van.

For anybody thinking of starting a business, this dinky van will enable you to carry everything you need in the back space, especially with the lifting tailgate to help you. Plus, the sidewall panelling in the back of the vehicle will protect your valuable items from sliding about - definitely a useful feature in the event of an accident, particularly if you don't want to make a claim on your motor insurance for damaged tools.

So, when you're next in traffic and you see a Vauxhall Corsavan behind you, don't let yourself get stressed at the thought of them tailgating. With a van like that, anybody driving it will want to enjoy the ride, so no more zooming from here there and everywhere. The new Corsavan will not only make the lives of business people a lot easier but will lessen the stress of everyday motorists. Well done Vauxhall!

Car insurance news 2005

*A replacement car can normally be arranged under one of the following conditions: (1) Comprehensive policyholders – a replacement car may be available under the terms of your insurance policy. Please check your policy details for more information. (2) Non fault accident – where we have the name, car registration number and insurance details of the person who caused the accident, we can supply a replacement car. This is done on a credit hire basis which means the costs for this service will be passed onto the insurance company of the person who caused the accident. We may not be able to arrange a replacement car where we are unable to get an admission of liability from their insurance company, or where the driver is untraceable or uninsured. (3) Repair garage – if your car is booked in for repairs following an accident, the repair garage may be able to provide a replacement car (subject to availability).
