Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Lightweights If you're looking for vans then the stands of Ford, Mercedes, Vauxhall and VW must be on your CV Show hit list. All have impressive light commercials making their debuts at the show.

Heavyweights No disrespect to the others, but if you can only get to two truck builders' stands this year, then Daf and Renault have to be on your list.

• Daf will give the new XF105 its UK debut and it will also take the wraps off the new CF and LE, complete with new engines and revised cabs.

• Renault, on the other hand, will exhibit its new Euro-4 compliant Midlum.

• For Loper operators, 1-trio's stand should also be worth a look.

Trailers and bodywork • Fruehauf has specialised in tippers since its rebirth last year. So if that's your game, head to Hall 3, where the company will be unveiling its new range of rigid bodies.

• Schmitz Cargobull's presence at the show always befits its position as Europe's biggest trailer builder, making its stand a decent place to visit.

Products and services • The Skills Centre. launched last year, has really taken off this year as the industry bids to attract new blood. It'll definitely be worth a look.

• Close Asset Finance says that visitors will be ''amazed" by its stand. We'll be going along to take a look for that reason alone!
