THE upmarket London plumbing firm has ordered 100 Volkswagen Transporter 6.1 vans.
The fully liveried vans will be delivered in batches of 10 units and will make the firm compliant with the current Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) requirements for London.
The Transporters feature bespoke conversions, including Fleet Shield roof racks, an on-call light box, Track Vine Telematics for fleet, a wash basin and new vehicle racking.
Charlie Mullins, founder of Pimlico Plumbers said:
We have a long standing relationship with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, something that we are very proud of. They stand for quality and excellence and therefore have a natural synergy with our brand.
They continue to be an iconic advertising vehicle for our brand. The vehicles have with no doubt been a big part of our success and ensured we have a recognisable presence across the city of London. They are smart and efficient and we are delighted to be updating our fleet of over 350 vans as we move into the next decade of the business.
The vans were acquired though the central fleet team at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles and supplied through local dealer SMG Croydon.
