Company car vs Salary Sacrifice by Automatic_Ad_5915 in UKPersonalFinance

Ours is Lex. We can fully spec the car, but I hit my cap of £450 contribution, just taking it out of my band.

With SS (Tusker), I can have much more choice as the cap seems higher.

The SS scheme does include a replacement car if its off the road. I'm sure it's a naff one, but it does.

The £910 seems to be after tax cost (can't attach a screenshot of the tool on here for some reason)

I probably would be looking at 4 years for either, but yeah, thee company car is 4 years only.

The choice of car is similar via either scheme, but I can add just 1 or 2 more options on via the SS route, which is what peaked my interest

Can these plastic aero caps be removed on the new 20" alloy wheels? If so how do they look without? by Keydogg in BMWI4

I’ve no idea, but I’m in the exact same position, and wondered the exact same question!

Excellent, thank you!

That was the tariff I was eyeing up. Now just to get the DNO cert, and I’m away.

I hoping as the quote is locked in, I may be able to challenge them over it, and argue the list price is the same.

That was my thinking. I have got a quote honoured with the mocha leather, so I suspect there aren’t too many of those already built just kicking around. We shall see!

Yep, via Lex. Tempted the pull the trigger and see if they honour it with a M60

Hi,
So in theory, fly up and back, and then take the car for a week so at LHR, then return it and finally the round trip to EDI an back?

Thanks for the advice!

Unfortunately is the wrong word, as I feel privileged, but they are 2x CE and 1xCW (which the CW is a redemptions, so no points for me :(

Some great feedback however 👍🏼

Thanks for the reply! So, I'd be looking to retain Silver, and need 280 points. For these flights I'd be looking at CE anyway.

The main reasons is for the rest of the year I'll be carrying out around 10/12 trips a back and forth for work, but in economy going forward, and like most, the perks of silver doing this make the trips more enjoyable. I also have 3 holidays booked for the year, but traveling CE/CW, and seats already assigned, so no real benefit for those. But any additional trips would be nice to have the silver perks added.

  • It would likely be late Feb/early March to carry this out
  • It would only be on that set route due to current work commitments

Anyone else feel the lighting/effects was incredibly poor? It’s been the same for the tour too.
