Welcome to Business Car Manager
Is your commute mainly in town? If you drive a diesel you could be at risk of breaking down – and one of the 70,000 drivers the AA assists each week. The technology to clean up sooty diesel exhausts is the villain. It is, literally, choking the car to a halt. And the only remedy could be a Ł1000 bill. Our lead story highlights the issue.
Access to best practice advice is the aim of BusinessCarManager.co.uk. So we’ve now revamped the Knowledge Bank, produced with partners DaimlerChrysler Fleet Management, to make that advice easier to access. And if you can’t find what you need there, check out our Advice Centre Downloads section, too.
