A CAR rental company is expanding low-cost vehicle rental business in Bury.

That's 4 Wheels has opened its third branch in the town, building on the success of its two existing outlets in Manchester and Oldham. The company has established its latest base in Buxton Street, Bury, and hopes to capture a large slice of the lucrative car rental market.

The company was launched last October and is already making great strides.

Commercial manager Philippa Harker said: "We are independents and we chose Bury because we realised there was a good potential in the town.

"Bury has lots of industry and we will be targeting individuals as well as corporate clients. We offer local, low-cost vehicle rental but people will get a car that's almost new: none is older than five months. And customers will get the complete service and they'll be treated as they wish to be treated".

The firm offers a 17-strong fleet and the Bury base has two assistant managers: Jemma Marsh and Stuart Young.
