New van & scrappage scheme

[Matthew77]

the prices quoted on the forcourt are not what you will pay,
secondly, i am not an accountant, i pay one!

thirdly, dont worry about tax! we all have to pay it!

my point is you own the van so any damage is your own fault and you will not be penalised (you would with a lease)
it only costs 150 per month, and you get a good quality van!!!

you are only in year two so chances are you have not even earned enough after expenses to pay any tax, in fact they proberbly owe you money!

if you put 20% of every payment into your company bank account, into a high interest savings account you will always have enough money to pay your tax bill, and the accountant!

Good luck

Very good idea ,never thought of that.

Of course not, I haven't earned enough yet to even think about fiddling the system

just in case you were thinking of getting a pink bow or a poodle

So when you are earning 100,000 a year will you think about it then???

Just to clear things up a little, what I meant by that statement was that with it only being my second year as trading self employed as a tiler & with the outset of tools I'm not really earning very much money when it comes to profits at the end of the year, also I've been trying to get a mortgage for the last year, but as you can imagine with most of the banks supposedly suffering in these times & me turning self employed its not going too well on the mortgage front.:mad2:

So for me if I were to be doing any fiddling of books It would be to show that I was earning alot more than what I am currently.

Back to the scrappage scheme I'm not sure how realistic these prices are but A dealership for near me is advertising some unbelievable deals on new citroen vans. Apparently they are doing a small van the nemo for under £5000! the berlingo seems pretty reasonable too.
