We have a hire van fully kitted out through our insurance company if it’s an accident delivered to the door within 24 hours , but if it’s a mechanical breakdown then it’s a case of getting it fixed at a garage ,luckily this situation hasn’t happened yet but the main garage we use is an MAN dealership they work 27-7 and will service a van  any time day or night so our vans go in at 18:00 and are serviced through the night then picked up at 7 am so no down time from work , not had a breakdown in 24 years , now I have said this I expect all the vans will break down tomorrow 😂😂

Would the dealership be H Sleeman?


No

Gis a clue


It’s an MAN dealership in Cornwall , no ware near you why the interest ?..

Patrick Uren Commercials?


Your google skills are good 😂😂😂😂

I know. Am I right?

Just wondering if there is a garage in Cornwall that does servicing during the night 24/7. From my extensive Google searching I can't find one. If you could tell me who the garage is it would put my mind at rest. I don't think there is one but happy to be proved wrong 👍

You cannot compare them totally different league I have had a couple of transits over the years good work horse  when new but build quality and reliability arnt good , MAN is basically a VW , just like driving a car . And price wise the MAN is very good value for money ours has every option except adaptive cruise control it has normal cruise control, and was cheaper than a transit custom , if you need a big van I don’t think you can do much better .

No issues at all so far mine is only two years old , don’t think it has a DPF as it’s euro 6 with add blue ?. Do they have a DPF?.
Payload isn’t great think it’s 1200kg but comparable to sprinters the best payload is the Renault master 1640kg but a horrible thing I have one of them as well .

Be worth it to get that type of service through the night  ;D

I think you will find all MAN commercial service centres are 24 hour that’s what it says in the service manual

So they've serviced your van during the night and they're open 24/7?

They offer servicing through the night as far as ime aware it’s 24-7 that’s what it says on the service book I have , they do our vans at night we drop them off around 17.30-18.00 and pick them up at 7.30-8.00 in the morning so no down time . Always have the needed parts  in stock .
