FORKLIFT truck provider Manitou has taken on seven Renault Lagunas to cope with company expansion.

The French-based group will use the 1.9 dCi Dynamic five-door hatchbacks for its UK sales force, with sales managers travelling across the UK on a daily basis. Ivor Binns, general sales manager at Manitou, said: 'Renault was the obvious choice. The Laguna offers excellent value for money, it looks great, is functional and the driver feedback has been really positive.'
