Vansdirect get the Meerkat Treatment 28th May, 2010

Voila - A Van!

We would like to take this opportunity to sympathise with Alexander Meerkat, as we at Vansdirect do occasionally get mistaken for the supplier of a branded footwear.

We would like to take this opportunity, as has Mr Meerkat on a number of occasions, to point out the difference.

Vansdirect Limited sell new vans, and cheap vans at that!

We do not sell trainers, daps or footwear!

Why would you want to buy trainers to run around the place, when a new van can get you there quicker!

The Electric Motor Take-Over 21st May, 2010

With the World focussing on a “Greener Future”, the motor industry is set to see an influx of electric cars and electric vans.

All Manufacturers are hard at work on their version of a greener more eco-friendly motor, that will revolutionise motoring as we now know it.  Many are currently working on an eco friendly car as opposed to a van, but all end products are currently proving to have an expensive initial outlay, but with long term financial benefits.

Nissan NV200 Review 24th February, 2010

Vansdirect Reviews Nissan’s New NV200

If Dr Who drove a van.......

If Dr Who drove a van.......

According to What Van? “If Dr Who drove a van, he’d probably drive Nissan’s new NV200. That’s because, like the TARDIS, it’s a lot bigger inside than it looks from the outside.” So impressed were they that they named it Light Van and Van of the Year 2010!

We should point out that unlike the TARDIS, the NV200 goes where you point it, it doesn’t resemble a blue telephone box and you needn’t where a copious amount of tweed nor a scarf to drive one.

Post Christmas Blues

Floor collapses!

Floor collapses!

OK, so this isn’t van related but I couldn’t resist.  The following article was published by the Times today - the true nature of human catastrophe isn’t exactly captured and, I’m ashamed to say I had to laugh, but it does neatly en-capture the post festive season blues.

Floor collapses at Weight Watchers meeting

A floor collapsed beneath a group of about 20 members of Weight Watchers as they gathered to compare how many pounds they had shed over Christmas.
