Think it’s called the ‘higher resale for plain white units, lower signwriting cost’ route really.
My mate made redundant Friday along with a few others

I realise the reasons behind, but it’s a shame more and more proper liveries are getting lost

Great minds think alike. 
I was talking to one of their drivers earlier this week who told me they only have three tractors on the Asda job now

But there will always be drivers stupid enough to want to work for them and other all fur coat and no knickers type of firm so they can say " Look at me I drive a prestige motor"
Might be crap basic wage but mate who works there took home £2,400 last months pay ,not bad I’d say if ya prepared to put the hours and nights out in.

How did he manage that.
Maxing hours out at 310 hours x £7.25 for 4 weeks = £2247.50
And doing 22 nights out at £25 per night = £550( if it is £25 per night).
A grand total ov £2797.50p before the tax mans bit.
That’s a great wage for the hours. But suppose he drives a new motor.
