agree BrigitteHilgner : My first idea, too - but it might be something as simple as "no. of vehicles", depending on the context.

vehicle fleet / stock of vehicles

just a guess - Bestand usually refers to stock or inventory - as with a portfolio of property

vehicle stock

I also happen to be currently working on a job involving this term and the term given in tables (for eventually putting in the code) is vehicle stock, such as with a dealer or company etc. It does not refer to a fleet or a pool.
Peer comment(s):

neutral JeffFish (X) : awfully high confidence level for a blind guess...
