A range of new deals being introduced by Citroen Contract Motoring (CCM) could help out cash-strapped van insurance holders, it has been suggested.

The group said it had decided to launch a number of "very competitive" contract hire offers in a bid to support its customers through the current economic downturn.

Available on selected Relay and Berlingo models, the deals follow the company's recent portfolio expansion.

Nigel Walker, the company's national sales manager, said: "CCM is committed to providing LCV operators with the optimum, contract hire and leasing products to suit difficult financial conditions."

Among the deals on offer is the opportunity to hire a new Berlingo 1.6HDi 75 hp 625 l1 X van from £169 monthly.

The offers are available until the end of March.
