Average values were up almost £1,000 compared
with January 2009.

Duncan Ward, head of BCA’s commercial vehicle
sales, said: “2009 has recovered all of the ground lost in 2008 and
a little bit more.”

“With small businesses being significant
buyers in the used commercial market, this suggests that confidence
is returning to the SME sector,” he added.
