Part 1: Our High Standards—Safety is Built In
At CTS, our high-quality standards are your first line of defence against breakdowns and regulatory issues. We guarantee that no vehicle is released unless it meets our rigorous criteria.
When you purchase a used truck from us, you’re not just buying a vehicle; you’re investing in a machine whose integrity has been fully verified. This peace of mind is essential during the autumn and winter when cold, damp conditions can expose mechanical weaknesses and electrical faults that standard suppliers might overlook.
Our Commitment to You:
- Mechanical Integrity: Every truck undergoes a thorough mechanical check to ensure reliability, particularly focusing on braking systems, steering, and suspension—all critical components when navigating slippery roads.
- Electrical Reliability: We verify all wiring and electrics to handle increased demand from lighting and heating, reducing the risk of roadside failure in poor weather.
Part 2: Maximising Visibility & Compliance with Custom Extras
Visibility is the single greatest safety factor affected by autumn weather. Rain, fog, and early darkness demand that your truck is highly visible and that the driver has optimal sightlines.
Our bespoke customisation and valeting services are specifically designed to address these hazards, helping your truck stand out and operate safely:
1. Light and Visibility Enhancement
Operating legally and safely in poor visibility requires robust lighting. Our custom extras go beyond basic compliance to ensure maximum presence on the road.
- Light Bars & Beacons: Installation of high-quality Light bars and Beacons significantly increases your truck’s profile in fog or heavy rain, reducing accident risk.
- Detailed Valet & Polish: Our Full Valet inside & out and Mop Polish not only makes your truck look exceptional but ensures all external lights, reflectors, and glass are completely clear of road film and dirt, maximising light output and driver sightlines.
2. Protecting the Undercarriage and Bodywork
Autumn roads are notoriously corrosive due to standing water and road salts. The integrity of the chassis and bodywork is paramount to long-term value and compliance.
- Clean & Repaint Chassis: We offer comprehensive Clean & repaint chassis services to prevent rust and corrosion damage caused by winter chemicals and dampness.
- Repair & Repaint Panels: Protecting your truck from minor cosmetic damage now prevents major corrosion and panel failure down the line, maintaining the vehicle’s structural safety and appearance.
Part 3: Protecting Your Investment—End-of-Lease Services
Managing the costs associated with returning a leased vehicle can be a significant headache. Depreciated costs often far outweigh the actual repair expense.
Our dedicated End of Lease Clean & Repair service is designed to save you money by ensuring your vehicle meets the required return standard without paying the inflated fees charged by rental companies.
Our End-of-Lease Service Includes:
- Detailed Valet: A full clean of the interior and exterior, including upholstery and appliances.
- Repairs: Expert Repair and paint damaged panels and Repaint wheels to restore the truck to its contracted condition.
- Replacement Parts: We can replace & fit any damaged interior parts or external panels, ensuring the vehicle is returned in impeccable condition.
By using Centre Transport Sales, you secure a reliable, high-quality used truck, and you gain a long-term partner dedicated to keeping your fleet safe, compliant, and looking its best throughout the demanding UK operating cycle.
