Over 20,000 visitors hit the show floor this week with trucks, vans, trailers and fork lifts all on display.

CV Show Director, Rob Skelton, said: “With all of these manufacturers using the CV Show as a platform to launch major new light commercials, it proves just how much importance the industry places on the show.

"It’s a delight and an honour to see these companies using the CV Show to make major new product announcements, but of course there’s plenty more to see than just the new vans."
