FREIGHT ROVER has won two major orders, including a Om deal for Sherpa vans and the first major order for the new six-man Sherpa Crewcab.
Home Delivery Services, the nationwide mail order delivery company, has ordered 1,000 petrol-engined Sherpa 200 vans worth £5m, to be supplied over the next two years. The vehicles will operate from HDS's 27 depots throughout the UK.
British Rail is to take 27 of the Sherpa 350 Crewcab, to be delivered by the end of this year. The order is worth £250,000.
Each vehicle will be fitted with a 2.5 litre diesel engine and will have a shortened version of Freight Rover's alloy factory-fitted dropside body.
