Toolstation and CT1 Reveal Van Competition Winner

Toolstation and CT1 have revealed the winner of their recent ‘Win a Van’ competition, helping boost the business of Luton based gas engineer Zaahid Abdin. 

The three-month long competition, which was launched in September, was available exclusively to Toolstation Club members who simply had to spend over £50 on CT1 products to enter.

Zaahid added his name to the draw with a visit to the Toolstation Luton store in November and received the perfect last minute Christmas gift with a call from CT1 in December to confirm he was the winner of a brand-new Ford Transit Custom Van. 

Ideal for tradespeople and business owners, the van is a trusted favourite due to its blend of reliability, versatility, and practicality, with a good payload capacity and flexible load space for tools and materials. For Zaahid, the timing couldn't have been better. He had been looking to upgrade to a larger vehicle for work but wasn't yet in a position to do so. The competition has given Zaahid a huge business boost, with plans to kit out the interior with shelving and add his own signwriting to the exterior well underway. 

Phil Logan, a Regional Manager at Toolstation, comments "It was fantastic to hand over the new Ford Van to Zaahid; he seemed genuinely surprised and delighted. He spoke about how his CT1 purchase helped him complete a recent job, making the win even more meaningful. The van looked amazing, sparkling with a big red bow - a great reminder of the benefits of being a Toolstation Club member and the value of being 'in it to win it!'" 

Nicola Walsh, Director of Sales and Marketing at CT1, said: “CT1, being British‑made with our unique TRIBRID® technology, wanted to give something back to our loyal CT1 and Toolstation customers. Partnering with Ford was the natural choice, as it is also a British‑manufactured product trusted by the trade. CT1 and Toolstation have a long‑standing relationship, with Toolstation remaining a favourite among professionals. 

At the presentation, one of our most respected and popular brand ambassadors, Simon Bowler, joined us to congratulate the winner and support this fantastic event. We want to thank our loyal customers, and we know you’re going to love the next big giveaway.”
