BUSES SALES * UK - September registrations: vans and coaches up, trucks and buses down

London,EN,UK -Work Management, by Ken Hurst -11 Oct 2010: -- Data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) show UK van and truck registrations – often regarded as a bellwether of the economy – up 3.7% to 242,908 for the rolling year to the end of September... The September score was 39,942, with trucks over 3.5 tonnes hitting 4,633, but were down 28% to 30,332 for the rolling year. Vans did better, with 35,309 registrations in September and a 10.6% rise in the eighth straight month of growth, to hit 212,576 for the rolling year... Other SMMT data showed registrations for big coaches up 52.0% in September and 9.5% over the year to date, but this was not enough to balance falling bus and minibus numbers...   Buses dropped 16.1% in September and 38.9% for year to date while 3.5 to 5.0 tonne minibuses slid 1.6% in the month...
