COMMERCIAL vehicle manufacturer LDV has launched a 16-seater minibus.

The Convoy Direct Glazed minibus starts at £19,995 (ex-VAT) and adds to LDV's range of panel vans and minibuses.

Nikki McCluney, marketing manager at LDV, said: 'We were able to get close to our customers, understand their needs and meet those needs quickly and efficiently.

'Our range is diverse from 10-seater executive buses to 17-seat minibuses, semi and fully accessible welfare buses and a dedicated school bus.'

The new model has full height access, ABS brakes, overhead storage and semi-accessible seating to accommodate wheelchairs as standard.
