Citroen sold more vans under the scrappage discount scheme than any other manufacturer for the third month in a row during November.

Sales of LCVs were 152 for the company during November – an amazing 26% of the total number of LCVs sold through the scrappage scheme.

It sold a total of 548 vans over September, October and November via the scheme – 25.7% of the total number.

There have been 825 Citroen registrations under scrappage since the successful scheme was launched in the spring.

Citroen's Robert Handyside, Commercial Operations Manager, said recently:"Many of the UK businesses with older vans, have been very happy to upgrade them to a modern version.”

Figures released in the month of September named Citroën as the number one choice for new van buyers.

During the month, one van in ten made was sold by Citroen. The total reached was 2,876 registrations, with sales split fairly equally between the Nemo, Dispatch and Relay vans.
