Mini-Cam maintains focus on Mercedes Sprinter
A company that supplies custom-built CCTV inspection vehicles to the pipeline industry is again tapping into a successful partnership with Mercedes-Benz dealer Ciceley Commercials.
Mini-Cam expects to take delivery this year of at least one van per month bearing the famous three-pointed star. All medium-bodied, high roofed Sprinter 311 CDI's, they will be arriving via Ciceley's Bolton depot, which last year supplied the company with 15 similar specified units.
Mini-Cam offers vehicles in different models and specifications, from the Mercedes Sprinter up to large capacity trucks. These can be tailored to customers exact requirements and equiped with the latest in pipe inspection technology, including Mini-Cam's own push camera systems, ROVVER™ and SUPERVISION™ crawler systems, the QUICKVIEW™ zoom camera and DIGISEWER™ side scanning system.
Operating from a purpose-built factory at Stonecross Park, Golborne, near Warrington, Mini-Cam has been adapting Sprinters for more than three years. Its customers range from major utilities companies to private contractors working for local authorities.
Managing Director Nigel Wilson explains: "We've converted the smaller Mercedes Vito and customers come to us with vehicles that they've sourced themselves, but our van of choice is the 3.5-tonne Sprinter."
"Its the ideal size for the job and is probably the best van on the market. It may not be the cheapest 'up front' but its reliability, long service intervals and strong residual values make it very competitive in terms of 'whole life' costs. Added to that is an unlimited mileage, three year warranty, which is backed by the manufacturer's extensive dealer network."
Customers of Mini-Cam also benefit from the fact that the Sprinters are supplied with a Mercedes-Benz Service Package. Under this, all labour costs, materials and lubricants required in routine servicing by a franchised dealer will be covered for five years or 60,000 miles, whichever is reached first.
Mr Wilson is delighted with the service he has received from his van supplier. "Ciceley are excellent to deal with; their prices are very competitive and we've had no trouble with the supply of vehicles," he adds.
The Mercedes Sprinter combines dynamic good looks, bullet-proof build quality, comprehensive specification and ingenious technology and sets the industry standard in terms of productivity and refinement. Highlights include best-in-class side-loading door widths, outstanding ergonomics and comfort, and powerful and clean CDI diesel engines.
Safety is also an important attribute of the vehicle, its imprssive arsenal of standard safety equipment including the latest Adaptive Electronic Stability Program®, which dynamically monitors its load status.
