IN THE NEWS
Stuart Thomas gives us his regular round-up of the way the newspapers have covered the world of transport this week...
Back in August 2003 CMreported that the Iveco Daily van would "win itself a lot of new friends" if the manufacturer tuned its suspension settings to cope more effectively with the road and lost a bit of weight.
Remember that quote. This -1-rf.AZ:Ft; is the phrase the general 7"r rra" 1161 I,. manager of Hammond's lveco dealership, Clive Death, allegedly chose when the Daily Express asked why Hammond has apparently had to send his van for repairs 100 times in less than four years. Symptoms (handily flagged up in a lop 10' table in the paper) included the engine losing power, coolant leaks and fuel-injection faults. Death pointed out this "intermittent" problem had now been resolved, but unfortunately, it was too late for Hammond. He's made his feelings about his old metal friend permanent and had "THIS IS THE WORST VAN I HAVE EVER OWNED!" painted on the side of the £22,618 lveco. No news yet as to whether Death will return the favour and intermittently tattoo "I'VE SOLD THE WORST IVECO VAN EVER!" across his forehead.
