What justification is needed for a pickup truck?

[Hiram King Of Tyre]

How strong a justification do you need to get a company pickup truch as a company vehicle? Anybody know?

It looks like it could be more cost effective than using a private car at 25p/mile or a 120g green car. Why is green cheaper than any other colour anyway?

and you can get the full 17.5% VAT back

all you then need is yorkie bar & a lumberjack shirt

No justification at all if you wear dungarees, a baseball cap, chew tobacco and your name is Jim-Baaab.

And an inferiority complex ala ShaunBhoy.

Yes I know all the plus's. Living on a small holding, I could make decent use of one too but do I need to justify it to hector?

I'm considering doing 10k miles in a private car at 40p and then doing the rest in a company pickup (until they change the rules)

Why should you have to justify it?

Btw, a quick question, do those 4 seater/door pick-up thingies get taxed as a normal car?

[Hiram King Of Tyre]

No. completely differently. If it's taxed as a commercial vehicle (meets the ctiteria), then the BIK value is £3kpa, Also if the company pay for all fuel, the BIK on that is £500pa. Plus you get the VAT back

I think you have to justify a business need though

Why?

I tell you what, why not have a look at the HMRC Robbing Bastards website?

I'll have a dig around later. Off to watch the footie now.

Salutations!
