Now in its eleventh year, Sewells' Fleet Operator Attitude Survey 2008 is now out.

This invaluable survey is a study of the relationships between the UK's fleet operators, vehicle manufacturers and their dealer networks.

This unique survey examines many key aspects of the business relationship that form fleet customers' satisfaction with their vehicle suppliers - from initial order and delivery through to aftersales service and repeat business.

This survey offers a unique insight in to how well vehicle manufacturers and their dealer networks are performing, and just how well their sales, marketing and support programmes live up to fleet buyers' requirements, offering you valuable information that impacts your decision on which franchises and dealers to do business with - and which not.

The unique aspects of the report include:
