    Buying a bus

    Can I buy in a tax efficient manner a bus through the company? Can I then use the bus legally to drive in bus lanes?

    no

    you need a PSV license for the vehicle which looks like a bus to make it a bus

    Ditto with black cabs. They have to be a licensed black cab in order to use the bus lanes.

      Will you be taking passengers? Maybe this could be a plan B for you, a job where driving like a tit is a useful skill...

          Unlikely given I earn more in an hour than a bus driver would earn if he worked till he was 350.

            The bus driver is better at maths than you, too.

              Isn't there some sort of loophole regarding the congestion charge?

                I'm sure that's unintentional but it's funny.
                While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
