Minimising Fleet Downtime on Key Devon Arterial Corridors
Key transit routes such as the M5 (Junctions 29 and 30), the A30 and the A38 Expressway experience heavy peak traffic and seasonal holiday delays. Unplanned vehicle breakdowns on these primary arteries disrupt tight delivery schedules and damage client trust.
Silverstone Leasing offers optional comprehensive maintenance packages bundled into your single monthly lease payment. We link your business with vetted local service centres and main dealerships across Exeter, Newton Abbot and Cullompton to keep off-road time to a minimum.

Yes. Leased commercial vans can be customized with business signwriting, vinyl wraps, interior ply-lining, security deadlocks and professional racking systems. All additions must be safely removable without causing bodywork or paint damage prior to contract return.
