Peterboroughbased van fleet to either Freight Rover Sherpas, or Austin Maestro vans, both powered by the 45kW twolitre Perkins Prima direct injection diesel engine.

The switch follows trials with a Prima-engined Sherpa and Maestro which according to Servisystem's district director Alan Breed, proved excellent for stop-start operations. Servisystem is now planning to progressively replace its Peterborough van fleet with Prima-powered vehicles, and the company will monitor running costs with the aim of using similar engined vehicles at other depots. Servisystem currently operates around 300 light commercials throughout the UK.
