• Increased competitiveness of the LPS 1418 32-ton gew tractive unit and the round-Britain "Truck Show '71" are the main reasons given by Normand Ltd, UK distributors, for increased sales of Mercedes-Benz commercials this year. In the first seven months, says Normand, as many Mercedes trucks and vans have been sold in Britain as were sold in the whole of 1970.
An improved warranty is also announced for Mercedes-Benz vehicles--it covers power units for up to 62,500 miles for both 'parts and labour.
Improved-specification LS and LPS 1418 models are now coming to Britain from the Woerth-am-Rhein factory. Mercedes prices are unchanged for the present but Normand has hinted that they may rise before long.
