Littlewoods' fleet manager Colin Burns, who still gives his drivers a free choice, said take-up on Mondeo and Vectra had been poor this year for no obvious reason. But he did think drivers were switching to the Peugeot 406 along with the Citroen Xantia since it came with free air conditioning. Renault's Laguna was still popular with user-choosers. He said: 'I don't believe the Ford and Vauxhall changes are enough to make a difference here.'
