April’s figures reflected strong price performance across all sectors, with CAP figures being an average of 101.58 per cent, even though they have experienced little downward pressure from the previous month. The figures for all of the major sectors were as follows; fleet and lease (100.93 per cent), nearly new (103.69 per cent), and the dealer part-exchange sector (104.40 per cent).
The values for vans have been on the rise for nine of the previous ten months, and record number values have been set for six consecutive months. In the fleet and lease van sector, the average value for vans has been in excess of £5,000 for three months in a row having hit that number for the first time during the month of February.
Duncan Ward of BCA related that even though we are going through a time when one could typically expect van prices to stall out, values keep marching on. Ward pointed out that a good demand level together with a small supply of stock at nearly every price point means a lot of competition for each van that we sell.
