A South Coast business has taken another step towards a more sustainable future after taking delivery of a brand-new Ford E-Transit Curtain Side, supplied by Van Guru.

Making the switch to an all-electric commercial vehicle demonstrates the company’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact while continuing to deliver the reliable service its customers expect. The Ford E-Transit combines zero tailpipe emissions with the practicality, payload and capability that businesses rely on every day, making it an ideal choice for modern commercial fleets.

Supplied by Van Guru, the new E-Transit has been specified to meet the customer’s day-to-day operational requirements, ensuring a seamless transition from diesel to electric without compromising productivity. With impressive driving range, rapid charging capability and lower running costs, the E-Transit is helping businesses across the UK embrace the benefits of electrification.

The South Coast company joins a growing number of organisations recognising that electric vans are not only good for the environment but also make sound business sense. Reduced maintenance requirements, lower fuel costs and access to clean air zones are just some of the advantages of switching to an electric commercial vehicle.

The team at Van Guru worked closely with the customer throughout the process, providing expert guidance on vehicle specification, charging considerations and the transition to electric motoring.

Everyone at Van Guru would like to thank the team for choosing us to supply their new Ford E-Transit. We wish them many miles of efficient, reliable and emission-free driving and look forward to supporting their business as they continue their electric journey.

Congratulations on your new van, and thank you for choosing Van Guru.

Today we’re celebrating a very important milestone: Daisy’s 3rd birthday!

For those who have had the pleasure (or slight terror) of meeting her, Daisy is our resident working cocker spaniel, which means she comes with approximately three settings:

• Full speed
• Faster than full speed
• Asleep for exactly 17 minutes before repeating the cycle

Whether she’s enthusiastically greeting everyone she meets, investigating absolutely everything within a 100 metre radius, or convincing herself that every tennis ball in existence belongs to her, Daisy approaches life with an unmatched level of enthusiasm.

Her hobbies include:

• Sprinting for no apparent reason.
• Making sure nobody has a moment of peace if there’s a game to be played.
• Carrying objects significantly larger than herself.
• Looking innocent immediately after causing complete chaos.
• Reminding us that “working” cocker spaniels take the word working very seriously.

Despite the occasional whirlwind of excitement (and the fact that “calm” isn’t really in her vocabulary), Daisy has become a much-loved part of the team. She’s always ready to brighten the day with a wagging tail, an impossibly happy grin, and enough energy to power the office for a week.

Three years in, she hasn’t slowed down one bit and if anything, she’s become even more wonderfully bonkers.

So here’s to Daisy:

• Three years old.
• Countless zoomies completed.
• Infinite tennis balls retrieved (and hidden).
• Endless smiles delivered.

Happy Birthday, Daisy! We hope your day is filled with treats, adventures, belly rubs, and as many balls as you can possibly carry at once.

Please join us in wishing our favourite four-legged whirlwind a very happy 3rd Birthday! 🦴🎂🐶

Van Guru is proud to announce the successful handover of two new MAXUS commercial vehicles to Dynamix Group a MAXUS curtain side and a MAXUS dropside, further supporting the company’s commitment to investing in a reliable, versatile, and efficient fleet.

Understanding the importance of having the right vehicles for the job, Van Guru worked closely with Dynamix Group from the outset to identify the ideal specifications for its operational requirements. Following an in-depth consultation, the team recommended a combination of a curtain-side and dropside vehicle, providing the flexibility needed to transport a wide range of materials and equipment safely and efficiently.

The MAXUS curtain side offers excellent accessibility, allowing goods to be loaded and unloaded quickly from either side of the vehicle. This makes it an ideal solution for palletised deliveries and larger loads, helping to improve productivity while reducing loading times.

Complementing the curtain-side, the MAXUS dropside has been designed to handle demanding site work and the transportation of bulky materials. With easy access from three sides of the load bed, it provides the practicality and durability required for day-to-day commercial operations, making it a valuable addition to the Dynamix Group fleet.

From placing the order through to final delivery, Van Guru managed every stage of the process. Working alongside the manufacturer and specialist bodybuilders, the team coordinated production, monitored progress, and kept Dynamix Group informed with regular updates throughout the build. This collaborative approach ensured both vehicles were completed to the agreed specification and delivered on schedule.

Before handover, each vehicle underwent a comprehensive pre-delivery inspection to ensure it met Van Guru’s exacting standards for quality, safety, and presentation. Every feature was thoroughly checked, ensuring both vehicles were fully prepared to enter service immediately.

The handover included a detailed vehicle demonstration, giving the Dynamix Group team the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the vehicles’ controls, operational features, safety systems, and maintenance requirements. This ensured drivers could make the most of the vehicles’ capabilities from day one.

The addition of the new MAXUS curtain side and dropside vehicles reflects Dynamix Group’s continued investment in its fleet and its commitment to providing dependable, efficient services for its customers. By selecting vehicles tailored to its operational needs, the company is well positioned to support future growth while maintaining high standards of productivity and reliability.

At Van Guru, every vehicle handover is about more than simply supplying a commercial vehicle. It is about delivering a complete customer experience from consultation and vehicle specification through to build management, inspection, and final handover. By taking care of every detail, Van Guru ensures customers receive vehicles that are ready to perform from the moment they leave the forecourt.

Van Guru would like to thank Dynamix Group for choosing us as its trusted commercial vehicle partner. We look forward to supporting the business with its future fleet requirements and wish the team every success with their new MAXUS curtain side and dropside vehicles.

Van Guru is delighted to announce the successful handover of a new MAXUS curtain side vehicle to Hydrastore, providing the business with a practical and versatile addition to its growing fleet.

This configuration enables faster loading and unloading, helping to reduce downtime and improve productivity for deliveries and collections.

Before handover, the vehicle underwent a thorough pre-delivery inspection to ensure every aspect met Van Guru’s high standards for quality, safety, and presentation. Every feature was checked to ensure the vehicle was fully prepared to enter service immediately.

The handover was completed with a comprehensive vehicle demonstration, giving the Hydrastore team a full overview of the vehicle’s controls, curtain-side operation, safety features, maintenance requirements, and best practices for day-to-day use. This ensured the team could begin operating the vehicle confidently from day one.

The new MAXUS curtain-side vehicle represents an important investment in Hydrastore’s transport capabilities, providing a dependable solution that supports the efficient movement of goods while enhancing the company’s operational flexibility.

At Van Guru, every vehicle delivery is about more than supplying a commercial vehicle.
