REPXPERT sets focus on LCV parts
In a recent REPXPERT e-shot, Schaeffler has put the focus on light commercial vehicles (LCVs) by highlighting the wide range of parts it offers for the popular second-generation version of the Mercedes-Benz Vito van.
The continuing growth in home delivery services continues to increase the number of LCVs on Irish roads. One popular example is the Mercedes-Benz Vito Series 2 (W639), manufactured for the European market between 2003 and 2014 before being superseded.
The vehicle is still a very common sight in a wide variety of guises, including taxi, box van, minibus, and camper van variants.
Parts offered by the motion technology company for the most popular CDI variant include several LuK RepSet clutch kits and DMFs, INA FEAD kits and FAG wheel bearings and steering and suspension components.
“As van numbers increase, LCV repair and maintenance is an increasingly important revenue stream for independent garages,” said Matt Selby, sales and marketing director at Schaeffler Vehicle Lifetime Solutions UK Ltd.
“Many businesses rely on their vans,” said Selby, “and the Vito remains a popular model. This is why Schaeffler offers a wide range of OE quality tailored repair solutions for simple, fast repairs and short downtimes.”
