PADWORTH, ENGLAND, November 11, 2010 (Press-News.org) Anchor Vans - one of the leading vendors of used vans in the UK announces the sale of its 20,000th used van. Berkshire's well-known used van vendor was opened 22 years ago and has increased its used van sales year on year, as well as branching into offering Ford-approved servicing, building a custom used van retail centre and opening an MOT testing centre at its first retail site. For more information call 0118 9710 230 or go to http://www.anchorvans.co.uk.

"It's fantastic to make this kind of announcement," said Simon Joyce, Sales Director of Anchor Vans. "We work so hard to give our customers the very best service and this milestone demonstrates quite dramatically that we're giving used van buyers exactly what they want; great service and high quality used vans. Our "unequivocal money back guarantee on delivery" promise gives them the confidence to buy from us again and again - we get a lot of repeat custom." Anchor Vans has also won the prestigious Van Retailer of the Year award two years in a row. "That award, plus the fact that low interest rates are enabling us to provide exceptional rates for van financing have also contributed to these sales figures," commented Simon.

When asked if there is one make of van that sells more than others, Simon replied; "We sell more used Ford vans than any other brand, and we've been so strong in that area that we branched into Ford-approved servicing provision to extend the value and service we can provide to our customers. We've also launched a micro site dedicated to used Ford vans at http://www.anchorford.co.uk for people looking specifically for used Ford vans," Simon added, "and I think that responding to our customers needs in these ways is a critical part of our success. We have high hopes for the next twenty-two years!"
