Members of the Association of Vehicle Recovery Operators (AVRO) have been quick to take advantage of the opportunity to buy fuel at typically 2p to 3p below the average national pump price and also to reduce their administration costs – And all at no extra cost, but simply by taking up AVRO’s offer of an Abbey Fuelcard.
As part of AVRO’s agreement with Abbey Fuelcards, members can select the Abbey fuelcard that best fits their individual business needs, and thus achieve best savings in both fuel and administration costs.

Operating a varied fleet of service vans, recovery trucks and cars, D H Mansfield Ltd chose the Abbey Fastfuel card as the ideal solution for their requirements. The Fastfuel card provides discounted petrol and diesel at some 1400 nationwide outlets, including all Texaco forecourts and Morrisons Supermarkets.
Mick Goodley Group General Manager at D H Mansfield commented, "We are delighted with the savings on the cost of fuel that we have made though the Fastfuel card. Each of our drivers has a card, and this has made the whole fleet management operation simpler, more secure, and more economical. We are also very pleased with the service we get from Abbey – card issue is quick and easy, and there is always someone available to answer questions."
In addition to making significant savings on fuel, AVRO members can tailor their account and management reporting service to suit their particular needs and operating requirements. This simplifies administration and delivers additional savings to further increase bottom line profitability and competitiveness.
Other Abbey fuelcards available as part of the AVRO scheme include Diesel Direct, which is ideal for businesses that principally operate along trunk roads and urban fringes, and euroShell which provides discounted diesel at Shell service stations across the UK.
