    So you get the cheap option and then pay 500 pounds for unnecessary repairs, or pay 10 pounds more for the AA option and then pay 490 pounds for unnecessary repairs. They're all bloody conmen anyway.

      Why does a contractor have a car that requires an M.O.T. ?

        I have a car that requires an MOT as a cost cutting measure introduced during the 2008-9 banking crisis. I 'downgraded' from a new Peugeot which kept breaking down to a 5 year old Benz E-Class and have decided I'll probably drive it until it dies, quite simply because I like it and it doesn't keep breaking down.

          That's all very well, but doesn't the butler organise the MOT ?

              No, I wouldn't let anyone else drive my contractormobile, especially not the butler after he's been polishing the silver.

                To go to the client site. To make sure that all the permies over there are not jealous of the leisure cars that are owned by contractors.

                  Is that a euphemism? You lazy sod!
                  Just saying like.

                  where there's chaos, there's cash !

                  I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!

                    I have 2 cars and neither are any good. The one I use down here is an old pug 206 that I bought off my cousin for £400 14 months ago. So far its cost me £140 for repairs to the brakes and the cost of a MOT and that's pretty much it. It looks sh1t and nicely lowers the tone at Beaconsfield train station where it lives.
                    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                    I preferred version 1!
