Continental joins Cooper-Avon as an approved tyre supplier for AA Tyre Fit. The company's complete tyre range will be offered to fleet and retail customers.

General Manager of AA Tyre Fit, David Goodyear, says: "The decision to add a second approved tyre supplier has come about as a result of the huge increase in business that we at AA Tyre Fit have seen in recent months.

"Since the original Tyreserve company was acquired by the AA in June last year, we have seen our turnover accelerate and the signs are that this strong upward trend will continue."
